A housing development in Caroline, NY, is home to 140 charming, colorful tiny home cottages on a 40-acre lot. Its design has one specific purpose: to help neighbors get to know each other. The Boiceville Cottages range from studio apartments to two-bedroom homes and rent starts at $1,545 a month. Placed strategically in clusters of three, the cottages are awash with community. They aren’t excessively close together, so people have enough privacy, but every day, they’re still bound to run into each other. There are book clubs, yoga classes, and art markets, and that’s just what’s listed on the community's Facebook group. A flexible pet policy is enacted, and a dog park exists on the property, along with a community “meeting house” available for free communal events. “This tiny house community is instantly welcoming,” resident Lori W. said in a testimonial. “It’s a place where you make friends (human and animal) for life.”
