US EditionCity Embraces Tiny Homes on Wheels as Affordable Housing
- A legal settlement approved in 2025 mandates that within three years, San Diego must ensure the majority of its affordable housing developments are situated in moderate- to high-income neighborhoods.
- The settlement followed claims that San Diego concentrated affordable housing in poorer areas by waiving development fees, raising concerns about segregated communities.
- Supporters say this change will promote integrated communities, while residents in areas like La Jolla express mixed reactions about increased housing density.
- Separately, West Sacramento became the first in the region to allow year-round living in tiny homes on wheels, which can be set up quickly and cost under $100,000, advocates say.
- The San Diego settlement and tiny home advocacy both highlight efforts to address California's affordable housing crisis through diversification and novel housing solutions.
