Tiny homes are a problem. They are a bandaid to make people feel better. We need more Medium density housing that allows people to live with dignity instead of cramming them into dollhouses. And no a tiny house is not the same size as a regular house in the 70s. It's 400sqrft compared to 1500 sqrft , get real

    The official definition of a tiny home is 150-400 sqft but in practice i find people refering to something the size of a mobile home or smaller a "tiny home". This is typically anything under 1000 sqft which is plenty for singles or couples. It's still below the average home size, but the average home would also be housing 3-5, people rather than 1-2.

    I agree that medium density housing is also desperately needed, and those medium density units could still come in a range of sizes.
