Louisiana adopts IRC zoning for tiny homes as primary residences, supported by low average rent and vibrant cities.
The tiny home movement is growing in Louisiana due to adopting IRC zoning, allowing 400 sq ft dwellings as primary residences or vacation homes. The state's affordable average rent ($500/mo), vibrant culture, year-round festivals, and natural scenery support quality of life. Tiny home-friendly cities like New Orleans, Alexandria, Lafayette, Lake Charles, and Shreveport contribute to the movement's growth, with projects like Burleigh Plantation and Santosha Village promoting affordable living.
