Can you provide any more background on the illegality of small houses? (To be clear, I'm not skeptical, just curious--it's new to me.)

- Mz 15y agoI think that is typically legislated at the city level and the intent is to prevent slum housing, but I could be wrong. I just recall reading an article about Tumbleweed houses where he stated that was why he put it on wheels. In a former life, I wanted to be an urban planner but life gotin the way. So I have some pasing familiarity with things like that, enough to mention anecdotally, but not really detailed knowledge. Another anecdote: Some places, like Apple Valley CA, also have quite large minimum lot sizes. This is frquently done to try to preserve rural character but the typical result is that it becomes an uber rich suburb. Apple Valley is quite expensive and driving through there is an exercise in touring neighborhoods filled with mansions, some of which literally belong to famous movie stars. Sorry I can't be more helpful.
