Want to share your love of tiny houses and your physical location on a world-wide map? Now you can!
While perusing the tiny house topics of note today, I tripped across this cool little interactive map.
I added myself to the “Tiny House Map” to hang out with like-minded people who live in tiny houses, build tiny houses and want to communicate about tiny houses. Go check it out. It’s cool.

Can a tiny house have a basement? I grew up in tornado-land and plan to retire in same…
Absolutely! I highly recommend that any non-mobile tiny house have a rather high “crawl space” or basement that is accessible from an old-fashioned “trap door” in the floor. That makes it great for going down without having to go outside (and also keeps it invisible, if you like from the outside world). I adds storage space for stockpiling food and supplies and, of course, provides a storm shelter. Take extra time to add a drain in a rock bed around the perimeter, and be sure to take additional steps to waterproof the space to keep it useful. Best wishes on your retirement!
Its great but I wish it wasn’t set to America by default. Should be a worldwide display when you open it and let people decide where to go from there. Most people wouldn’t even know to pan to other countries…
I agree. A world view would be an improvement, Adrian!
