The City Lifestylist®

There has been a lot of press about housing footprints becoming smaller, and a recent article that I found in the New York Times backs up the fact that this type of home is here to stay.

Smaller homes are ideal for vacation housing as well as for just a getaway in your own back yard. "Casitas" are a very popular item in the Southwest and many new home builders offer them as an option in their communities. With gas prices soaring, many people who were entranced by the "Go RV'ing" movement are now seeing this type of housing as a better alternative for their winter journeys.
