    Do you need legal tiny house parking? Tiny House Block has available spots! It's in San Diego County in the beautiful Mount Laguna, in the Cleveland National Forest--just an hour from downtown SD. During our visit, we enjoyed connecting with full-time residents, who are eager to welcome new neighbors around the campfire for their next potluck! 🏡🏡👉 *See More Tiny Home Communities:* th-cam.com/play/PLlvBXhDyr9H1KYgiaoNKa-OZfOq6vXbkm.html

      Is tiny finally legal now in San Diego? I hear it’s still in the works. But maybe the county rules are different from the city?

    I used to live in the “rundown” RV park they talked about for 4 years prior to this new community. They omit quite a bit of information about living this lifestyle and the location.
    The elevation of this park is about 6000 ft. When the snow would fall, it would FALL. In one night we got about a foot and a half of snow, the plows that maintain the roads of the mountain DO NOT plow the park. The traffic on the mountain during these snow days was BAD. Thousands of people would flood the mountain right after is snowed and the mountain would have trash EVERYWHERE. We heard from neighbors outside the park who would have their property broken on to or partially destroyed by people because the “private property” signs were ignored.
    This duo who opened this park lied to all the tenants and evicted everyone out of this park, displacing people who could not afford to live at a $1300 rent. That rent by the way, is 4x what the RV park charged everyone. They spent a VERY hefty # just to purchase the park.
    Park plumbing was always a huge project for the previous owner, the park septic tank broke a couple times during the hot summers while we lived there. It would soak the ground around it and the heat just amplified the smell, So gross. Hopefully they’ll actually get that fixed.
    The amenities? The closest grocery store and gas stations that aren’t over $4/gal are about 30 mins give or take depending on the weather (the snow triples travel time if you aren’t used to driving in it). You really need a fuel efficient car to drive up and down if you don’t work from home.
    Want internet? Hughes Net is the only available provider. Cell service? Verizon works best, ATT after that, all others don’t work.
    Above all the heart ache this duo caused for my husband and I and all our neighbors, I miss living there, you get the 4 seasons there, not what you ever see down in SD. Julian, CA is a hop skip and a jump away which is one of the cutest towns you will ever see in SD. The nature here is breathtaking, countless hikes were taken. A lot of the previous neighbors I had were retired or spent the warmer months here and colder months in Arizona.
    I’m in no way telling people they shouldn’t live here, it’s a gorgeous place, just trying to give some real information, not sugar coated BS that omits that stuff people really need to know. The way they went about setting this park up was hurtful and facetious. We thought about taking legal action against them, but ultimately decided not to. If I had the option to move back to Mount Laguna, I would, but not if this duo owns the park still.

      @kaylaescolano4668 4 ปีที่แล้ว +56

      I would also like to add, I’m sure they used “rundown” because a lot of the RVs parked there were old models, about 20 years old or so. A lot of the tenants lived there for a very long time on fixed income, getting a new RV wasn’t something they could do. The park was in no way trashy. Just wanted to clarify that in case anyone wondered.

    • @milly9897
      @milly9897 4 ปีที่แล้ว +31

      This sounds horrible and you should reconsider taking legal action or at least letting the local government know about what happened to previous tenants. I am surprised that the courts allowed it. I do think that the rental prices are way too high. I have been watching these videos for a few months and this is by far, the most expensive I have heard of for a community. He gives me a creepy vibe by the way and so does sis. I hope the new batch of tenants don't go through the same thing. Thing is when you have pages like this one, they are simply reporting on what they see so the owners are on their best behavior. They probably did not see anything that would be concerning.

      Yep. You should be able to put a tiny house in a back yard, or a spot that you pay for. You should be able to capture the water that falls on the land you own (rain barrell), and harness energy that infringes on no one. There should not be a minimum size house requirement. It's all just for property tax.... I like to look at pretty neighborhoods, so I understand the need to have regulation about not looking like a dump, but other than that, there should be more latitude.

    $1,200 per month (which is the cheapest rate) for a location this far out from San Diego is not a great deal. Like much of the Tiny House movement it is often not cost effective and usually more expensive than other forms of alternative housing. People really need to do their research.

    • @le_th_
      @le_th_ 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      ​@@martini426 Do what this man did. Buy a failing RV park (you have tons of them in AZ already). Triple the lot rent. When the poor people who purchased mobile homes and parked them there can't afford the exorbitant increase in lot rent, you evict them AND they'll likely leave their mobile behind for you to renovate because they're already there because they can't afford any where else to live, they own no land to move the mobile home onto, and paying to have a movile home moved isn't cheap. They'll be homeless, but what do you care? Then you EVICT those who can't pay while keeping their mobile home they paid for and can't afford to move, and once that is accomplished, you then rebrand from a mobile home park to a "tiny home community". The ignorant, shallow, trend-seeking social media-absorbed narcissists who fall for this stuff don't care who was screwed over or forced into homelessness, as long as they have new material to post their videos and photos on Instagram, YT, and elsewhere. Kinda like this YT channel did right here. They just posted above to me that they "share what was shared with us". Seriously.
      Now, if you want an ethically acquired/built tiny home community, that is A LOT more actual work then just ruthless, psychopathic greed with total indifference to others as this particular "tiny home community" was created.
      Tiny homes are not affordable unless they are built in a co-operative manner and homeowners are VERY resistant to their home prices being de-valued anytime a community wants to buy land anywhere except farm land. Most all the communities that exist are/were zoned for mobile homes. The exceptions seem to be those who built on land zoned for farming.
      The tiny home communities that are NOT built in a ruthless manner seem to be created by religious leaders of various churches (I'm an atheist-leaning agnostic here, so this is NOT me promoting religion) who have a vision to house the most vulnerable in the community (the homeless, the disabled, the elderly, etc), and the community leader gets the entire community on board BEFORE they begin to build or plan anything. They then enroll the architects and engineers in that community to each create a design they are recommending, and enter the design in a contest. Those who win the contest each must then BUILD and DONATE that home design for the community.
      Honestly, mobile homes are much more cost efficient, and usually create far less waste of resources than tiny homes create, but there is a stigma people do not want.
      (Note: I have seen some exceptions to this, but most of them are in other countries that have different laws and zoning)
      The largest barrier to tiny homes becoming affordable and feasible is the home owners in every community where this is attempted, even in the most liberal places in California the home owners pitch a fit at community meetings, create FB private groups AGAINST the tiny homes that they delete once they achieve their desired goal of getting the board members to vote it down in their community.
      You would think an extremely liberal community like Berkeley, CA would be open to something like this, but both the business owners AND the home owners have fought against the homeless population mercilessly and in the ugliest manner you can imagine. It's the typical not-in-my-backyard mentality.

    Strived to live this way all my life since my early 1950s childhood! My grandfather used to allow Romani Varda wagons camp on our Ohio apple orchards in exchange for pruning/harvesting, and I had several friends I would look forward to returning. My first "tinyhouse" was a 60s recreation of a Vardo which I made for my old Dodge truckbed that was strong enough to winch out of the bed when I needed my open truck for hauling. A lot of fun life in that thing! Nice to see the perennial legalities being plowed thru in San Diego.

My dad (b. 1927) grew up in the West Virginia hills on a farm and he told me the gypsies would come through there with stuff to trade and sell. He said they sold his dad a mule once, and his dad later realized the mule was blind. When we buried my dad, one of his relations said there was a gypsy baby buried in their family cemetery somewhere. He'd never been sure if it was true or a rumor. I wish I would've asked my dad more about it.

    MIXED FEELINGS TO THE MAX! I / we (I, wife, two kids) lived THERE, at that exact location, in the Sunrise Highway Trailer Park from 2000 to 2003. We haven't been back there since; so the GREAT: it's so wonderful to see the place again! The NOT-SO-GREAT: people are paying way more than we did ($150 a month) back then.
    As to the "1 hour drive" - that's not quite accurate. It's a one-hour drive from the BOTTOM of Sunrise Highway to downtown S.D. BUT there's at least another 15 minutes (much more and not undangerous during the winter half of each year) on the 9 miles up Sunrise Highway to this spot; PLUS the additional driving to anyplace within S.D. county that's not right off the freeway in downtown S.D.

      When i heard them say $1300/mo rent, $750/mo to park... wow. That is NOT what "Tiny Home" living should cost. The whole point of going Tiny is to get away from working full time until you are 70. This really defeats the purpose if you ask me. They are definitely catering to a very specific demographic, young professionals who work in the city, but cannot afford the ridiculous cost of living there.

    I have always wanted a Tiny Home but kept running into the same issues with where to legally park it especially since most RV parks wont allow them either. I ended up getting a toy hauler and converted it to my now cozy luxury home with all of the things that I needed for my lifestyle. I am in Las Vegas, There is a builder out of Canada that I may dive deeper into in the future for my modern T.H. build. If you know about any villages trying to get started in Las Vegas (and not the one downtown run by the former Zappo's president) May he rest in peace, but that space is so exclusive to employees etc... but let me know and I would gladly do what I can to help out here in Las Vegas. Clearly we have the land... I have no idea why so many of the decision makers are so old in their thinking this is revolutionary and could be great for so many who want to ACTUALLY OWN their space and not be slaves to a mortgage for decades. Buying my rig was the best decision ever and this crazy year of 2020 forced it to happen sooner, there's my silver lining because I love being a Tiny Home momma :)

    That is a decent rental price for the San Diego area especially that it includes your most important utilities.
    What if the hey want to rent a lot space but they have solar power and only needs to have water and trash is the price different or the same.
    But your prices are good i live in Missouri about 40 minutes south of st. Louis. We have a smaller house it's a one level 3 bedroom 1 bath with a full basement. It sits on one acre, our house payment is $620.00 a month mortgage payment not a rental payment have well water so our only utilities are electric and trash. I think it's a pretty good deal.

      Odds are 750 Is not the full price for a 3 bedroom 2 bath at least not if you're in California.

Or even if there were prefab “homes” light enough to be pulled by bicycles...yes, I’ve see prototypes..it’s great but nobody is mass producing any because $.

    I think what the Tiny House park owners are trying to do is great. As they say in the video you can rent full time or park. I’m assuming parking doesn’t cost the same as renting. I live on Maui. You can’t rent anything for less than $1800/mo, so I don’t think that’s too expensive for your own space in a nice, safe community with like minded folks.

    Definitely understand the extremely difficult circumstances that one commenter mentioned. I was just But the reality is, you were dealing with a septic tank issue for probably years. These critical infrastructure items are not free to maintain. There is a reason these new owners were able to address issues like that. They have to charge appropriate fees in order to provide the needed upgrades to improve the park. b/c the reality is, owning a park, you have to pay insurance, and taxes, and these go up and up (they do not stay the same). The overall issue is the value of money- ie inflation. Which was able to help us avoid a worse recession ie depression. The issue is not each other.
