"I can see tiny houses as starter homes for often mobile young people (like New York apartments on wheels) or as retirement spots for older people, (Especially maybe those living with their kids), but they are not practical for families.  I always wonder where I would put all my books. Someone said, you get digital editions of everything. I said digitizing my library would cost more than the darn house.  Every once in a while you see people looking at a small house, in the 500-600 sq foot range, I think yeah, we could do that once the kids are out.  But we are only downsizing from about 1200sq ft to begin with. The biggest problem with the current house is that its on 3 floors, not good for old knees.  But I watch the shows because the people are just amazing.  (the only thing better are the clueless Americans on HH International, who expect elevators, 4 bedrooms, and 2 baths in 300 yr old apt buildings in the historic section of great old European cities."
