Frequently asked questions

What is a tiny home community?

A tiny home community is a place where several tiny homes share land, and often amenities, for long-term living. Most rent lots to people who own their home; some sell homes on leased land, and a few rent homes by the month.

Are tiny home parks the same as tiny home communities?

Tiny home parks and tiny home communities usually mean the same thing: land set up with lots and hookups for tiny homes. Many are legally RV parks, which is why so many accept only tiny houses on wheels or park model RVs.

Can you live in a tiny home community year-round?

Every community in this directory offers long-term living, not just vacation stays. Some, like RV parks with tiny home lots, also take nightly guests, so each listing says whether short-term rentals are allowed.

How do I know a listing is real?

Every listing links to its sources and shows the date we last checked it and how. We leave out vacation-only resorts, builders and projects with no public facts, and we never pad a state with RV parks that do not take tiny homes.

Do I need to own a tiny home to live in a community?

No. Some communities sell homes on leased land and a few rent homes by the month, so you can move in without bringing a house. Use the "Buy a home" and "Rent a home" filters above to see them.
