I would love to live there. My sister n her family live in Estero n want me to move to FL but I am low income on SSDI n can't afford much. I'm 60 years old n am heart broken. This would be an answer to my Prayers. It's what I can afford. Could you help me ?

Definitely love Debbie's laid-back approach and what she's created and why. Making a food forest on the site is beautiful. It's affordable, it's fantastic. I hope she is able to get the county services and expand this one-- and she seems like a perfect person to create a lot more tiny-home communities. And if there were a lot more, there could be linkages between them to create all kinds of good things.

[@2legit64]

@@issyness8658 I currently live in Missouri, but want to be looking for somewhere that has more moderate winter temps as I'm tired and getting too old to be shoveling snow. I'm hoping to retire in five years, however, recently looking at my modest investment portfolio is making me either reassess my plans or pray for a huge miracle that the market recovers in the next year or so. I fell in love with New Mexico, but they have issues that may be hard to overcome in the next few years; mainly drought and water shortage as well as the very limited availability of land. I hadn't been interested in moving to the Southeast for a lot of reasons, but I recently heard that some parts of Tennessee would be nice. Right now, it is just a dream that I have a few years to research and plan.

[@Jerrodbasketball]

@@2legit64 I’ve been wanting to do something like this for years. Our family has a piece of property in TN that’s 70 acres. We have five acres cleared and I’ve been wanting to build a little tiny house community. We have a garden started but haven’t figured out the next step to get tiny houses out. Might purchase one very shortly in the future to get started.

[@nunyabizness3890]

I agree with Debbie. We need to see this as a good idea for affordable housing and be open-minded if it comes to our part of the world. But also, perhaps we need to do more than just "accept it?" Maybe do what it takes to make it happen in our community, like she did. She is one good and humble human being. Well done.

[@coppertopjohnson9782]

I admire Debbie for her initiative in providing affordable housing and introducing tiny home living. I have always believed that tiny home living motivates the owners to expand their abilities of organization, minimization, independence, and common sense. Great job Debbie. Thanks for sharing.

[@HelenBeeee]

I love people who facilitate community and we need these people more than ever to be seen. It gives hope for a world that faces pandemics and self interested nefarious individuals who hold great power these are some scary times and yet there is hope as seen here. Thanks for posting.

This woman has a good heart & truly cares about people. She conceptualized and made happen this wonderful community. There needs to be more places like this all over this country in communities everywhere!

[@ericalampley480]

She's wonderful. I first learned about tiny homes several years ago while thinking of a solution for my aging parents. Wanted to put one on my acre lot for them so they'd still have independence but I'd be right there. Nope. Zoning wouldn't allow it.

[@denniswright7151]

Somethings are just a matter of creative wording. Search and you might find.

[@JoePAcalaughs]

Unless it's for commercial purposes the Municipality has no jurisdiction with zoning. Unconstitutional you can do what you want with your property. The true law only applies to those who work for the municipality. Same with property taxes. Pyramid scheme. Learn the law.

[@desiferreira1484]

I love that Debbie had green and sustainable thinking outside the box in our community!

This is a great book with a lot of good construction tips The sheds featured in this book are probably built better than most peoples' homes. kzbin.infoUgkxzaRUJNcbypw-fRBDbqqz43ULIa-1EGP- The author uses only the best materials and methods. It proved to be a great resource for my little 8' x 10' shed project and more 400+ plans. If you are turned off by the flimsy tin and home center kit sheds; if you want a shed that has some character and can be used as an extension of your home; then this book is for you.

This community should be an example for the rest of the country. Tiny houses aren’t for everyone, but for a single person or a young couple these would make perfect starter homes. The payments to have one of these built would probably be much less than renting an apartment, and instead of throwing your money away on rent, you’d have an asset to sell when you’re ready to move on to something larger.

As an European it always amazes me how people who work in public servicer (teachers, police, ...) can't afford "normal" housing in the States. I would however live in a community like this in a heartbeat.

[@ashdav9980]

95% of the land in the US falls under zoning regulations that would NOT allow this type housing. Instead of going to the county and city planners and demand to relax regulations to allow smaller houses, people just whine and complain it’s “greedy builders” who just don’t want to build tiny houses, when in fact they aren’t ALLOWED to build them by law. So, what do folks do? Ask for MORE of these regulations and then complain when the house doesn’t get cheaper. California is a prime example. The country is full of people who want to take a lazy approach to issues and not see the complexity….and “they just greedy” is the laziest approach of all. 🤷‍♀️ Even in red states you will not find many of these communities….but take note that where they DO exist will be a red state, where zoning regulations are more flexible (Texas also an example). Trailer parks have also been outlawed in nearly 100% of the US, the only ones that exist do so because they are grandfathered in.
