How would you define "The American Dream?" For many Americans, this phrase is synonymous with becoming a home owner.
Of course, this just isn't economically feasible for everyone, which is why the Tiny House Movement has gained so much momentum in the past few years.
Thousands of Americans are deciding to live in houses under 320–500 square feet. According to the National Association of Home Builders, the average cost to construct a home in the United States is over $240,000, while tiny houses generally cost less than $50,000. And by building the houses themselves, tiny house owners are also saving on construction labor costs.
Tiny house living lets people own their own home without going into significant debt, freeing them to live their lives in financial freedom.
A new documentary, entitled Small is Beautiful, is highlighting why so many people are opting to live in these tiny spaces and how they go about doing it.
