Living Large in Tiny Houses

A tiny house isn't a bungalow in West Park. That's a cozy house. A tiny house is usually teeny-tiny, most around 200 square feet. That definitely would save time on the commute to the fridge, but can you even imagine living in a house smaller than a hotel room? Lots of people do. The tiny house movement is getting big, in Cleveland and across the nation. We'll meet tiny home owners and hear their rationale, Thursday morning at 9 on the Sound of Ideas.

In the video above, you can watch Mike take a tour of a tiny house-- specifically Tim Nevits' home in Cleveland.
