What is the tiny-house movement?

The tiny-house movement is a social movement where people choose to give up their large homes and downsize to something much smaller and compact. This movement is all about simplifying life and living with the things that are important, putting a stop to hoarding and excessive consumption. The average home size was rapidly increasing, this move questions the need for large homes and also helps people find homes easily.

The smaller the house gets the more affordable it gets too, this means you don’t have to worry about loans that you’ll have to pay for the rest of your life, or high house tax or even high maintenance fees. Studies show that over 55% of people who live in tiny homes in the US have more savings than the average American.

How big is a tiny house?

A tiny house can vary from about 100 to 400 sq. ft. it is built in such a way that you still can lead a comfortable life, but only if you’re willing to scale down and live like a minimalist. There are also small homes, these range from 400 sq. ft. to 1000 sq. ft.

It is also important to note that there are two types of tiny homes, one that is mobile and can be hitched to a trailer and moved and the other that is built on a foundation and can’t be moved. Mobile homes have more restrictions as they must adhere to certain road rules, and parking them can be a hassle.

In comparison, the average size of homes in Mumbai is about 700 sq. ft. thus falling under the small home category. In Bangalore, the homes are larger and have an average size of about 1,260 sq. ft. In India, these homes are not mobile.

But, if you look at the lower-income groups, they live in much smaller homes that range from 494 sq ft / 103 sq ft per person in rural areas and 504 sq ft / 117 sq ft per person in urban areas as per the Times of India.

Benefits of a Tiny Home 

The biggest benefit of tiny homes is that they are a lot more affordable. In fact, in a few countries, the government has provided its underprivileged citizens with tiny homes. This was an affordable way to provide shelter for them and it did not require a lot of time or materials to put it together. 

The other benefit is that it encourages simple living and lastly it helps to cut down your carbon footprint. For those who have mobile tiny homes, adventure is another huge benefit as they can pick up and move anywhere, they wish.
