re: Tiny House mania...

I definitely could; would love to actually. If there's a porch/patio or a rooftop space I'd enjoy it. But I would need enough windows for max light/air flow!

Main house was a small flat in a city center. Certainly not that small, but small by standards here (probably 2,ooo square feet). Loved it.

None could not, not even single would I or could I do it.

I could do it if single, and if I had a 40x40 pole barn in the back yard.

With an aging population and a non savings society living longer I expect this trend to 180 very soon.

Those people are idiots. There is no way someone can live in some of those tiny homes. Everything is literally in one little area. Bathroom, bedroom, kitchen.. There is little room to put anything. By the time you put in the clothes and the supplies you will need there is no room for anything.

When my wife and I got married, we lived in a 512 sq ft house. The kitchen was 11x16, bathroom/laundry room was 5x16, and the living room/bedroom was 16x16. It was comparable to a small studio apt. For two people it was fine, but it was imperative to have everything in its place. It made it way harder to accumulate useless shite, which was nice.

No way I could do it with a family though. Our house now is roughly 3x's larger and with the kid we are busting at the seams.

i wouldnt live in one of those tiny houses-on-wheels, but id absolutely love to live in an a-frame in the mountains.

So stupid
