She is doing what I have wanted to do for a long time. How can I contact her?
If you look her up online there is a website with contact info
@@dave06278 thank you
@@catherinenelson8676 also the link is in the video description 😊
All ready found it.@@TinyHouseExpedition
She’s living the dream! Everything she said is what makes it special. We are going to see a lot of this in the future. That makes me so happy! Thank you for sharing this.
You are so welcome!
It's a very nice community in a beautiful area. I love that it has access to public transportation. Lots to love, big lot sizes, community garden, by a river, mountains are close by. But the thing I love best is she balanced her financial needs with making the lot rent very affordable, instead of trying to pull as much $$ as she can from it. Not only is there a need for affordable housing which tiny homes can fill, people need places like this one that are very affordable. I also like the fact she allowed those in mobile homes to stay instead of pushing them out and raising rents dramatically. Thanks for the great tour of your community Jill!
Well said 🙌💫💕
Well stated. It's a win-win situation. Not everyone wants to "retire" to an apartment. Hopefully, more people will see the impact and importance of communities like this. Especially for people with disabilities. I would definitely be helping and working in the garden areas.
I love the fact that people tend to become friends in these communities much more quickly than they do in a traditional home!
Seriously one of the best benefits! 😊
Oh, how I wish we had tiny home parks in Michigan! I love this park in New Mexico -- seems like a great place to live and very affordable, too. ❤️
We really hope they come to Michigan! Tiny Estates is looking to build communities around the country; you can ask them to consider Michigan here: tiny-estates.com/communities 😊
My custom THOW was built by Lil Bear Tiny Homes out of South Branch, MI. He has talked to his county board about allowing them. They aren’t on board, yet.
I’m in IL in the village I grew up in. It has about 120 residents. Get your info in order and go to small towns and ask if they will allow Tiny homes. Explain the build process and that they are NOT trailers or park models. Most places accept current trailers but won’t let residents swap out. Sometimes all people know is that they are ‘tiny’. My county health dept basically said that town laws trump county. So if a small town will allow, you should be good! Apparently we don’t have certain codes here. Seems odd. And my building permit to get my utilities put in was $5. Five dollars! lol
I bought a dbl lot where a house and garage burned. The house was built in 1890. Septic? So there has been a lot of work. Maybe by Mother’s Day I’ll be in?! 🙏🏻
Then maybe my The Squatch Inn can be featured?! 😁🙏🏻
Good luck!!
Loved this video! It is so nice to see people say the same thing about "community". I feel the same way about living in LuxTiny Tiny House Community. This is the first time in my life that I know the majority of my neighbors. I lived on a street with most of my family at one time and beyond my family I never interacted with any of the other people on our street. Here in this community I am on a one on one face to face relationship with the majority of the community. It has been the best move of my life. Tinyhouse living is the best!
What a wonderful experience! So happy for you 💕
What a delightfully principled woman. ❤
💯❤️
What a delightful woman Jill is. I so love her view of life and willingness to provide a safe, affordable community for others without taking advantage financially. I'm rooting for her, her future plans, and the gentle folks at River Edge. If I didn't "need" to live 4 blocks from the ocean in southern Oregon, I'd be checking out this place for sure. BTW, I loved Janet's shirt about being the same age as old people. I ordered one from Amazon just now 😅
You are speaking to ME. You described my life situation. Single on fixed income with no car. I could so live there in a single level structure. Thank you for doing this and keeping my dream alive.
🙌 you got this! 💕
A very nice spot, Jill😍.
Very affordable too!
It's definitely a nice location 👍.
Thanks for the Tour .
JO JO IN VT 💞
What a nice community!
Wow! I love this for all of them! And It's fantastic that they have short term rentals for people to try it out! I hope more of these open around the country to give people affordable options! I think the owner has great character, she really considers the folks, bless her!
💯🙌💕☺️
Love seeing new THOW parks - especially ones with larger lots! keep up the good work!
Please let this lady know that what she's doing for those of us who are income challenged, is beyond amazing. God bless her abundantly. I love that stove in the first one! 😊 I wonder if that would work in our 5th wheel RV? Beautiful homes. Thanks for the video guys, probably my favorite from you guys. Lot's of love and prayers to that community. I miss living in Espanola NM😊
Hmm 🤔 i bet it would! Most welcome Mary 💕
@@TinyHouseExpedition sorry guys I always comment before I get to the end of the video, I should stop that because I had to edit my comment 3 time. Your videos are just that good🤗🤗🤗
@@maryfolks9368 no worries!
What a wonderfull loving lady❤
So true 🙌 we need more developers who really care, like Jill!
Lovely. All different but with a shared philisophy about life. I wish this way of living was available in Europe. A space for independent individuals to live but with a caring eye towards their neighbours. I'm envious! ❤
We hope more like comes to Europe too! There are a few in The Netherlands and German; hopefully the idea will spread. 💕
Well, this was a lovely and refreshing reminder of the joy, ease, and peace that is possible with tiny home communities. Here in Los Angeles, there really aren't examples that it's possible and exists. It's easy to get caught in the mindset of lack of community, even amongst a shared property. I loved this perspective and definitely needed the tap on the shoulder that "your people are out there"! Great community tour🙌🏾
Yes; they’re out there! 💖 Creating new tiny home communities are definitely difficult in expensive real estate areas. Wouldn’t it be great for cities to offer up odd vacant lots that they already own to create alternative housing like this? 😃
Lovely little community I agree there needs to be more places to park your tiny home in a community set up like this both in the USA & Canada. I feel they are good for the environment. And affordable living I love them and wish I actually owned one it would be more manageable at my age age off 66, Love the garden area very nice nice area to hike oh yes. I admire what you have done wish we had the same here in Ontario. God bless ya
This is so great, and such a place and sense of community. I live in LA in the rat race, maybe one day this may be me❤
Hope so! A change of pace is always so refreshing ✨💫
I'm 76 yrs. old and was raised on the now-cliche premise that where there's a will, there's a way. I've accomplished some very hard things in my long life by keeping laser-focused on my goal at the time, setting aside negative thinking that said it was impossible, that I was a dreamer. I always ended up listening to my heart and my gut and followed their advice 99% of the time. And, things turned out 99% of the time. Please don't think, "maybe one day this may be me." Think, "absolutely one day this will be me." Obstacles you think you could never overcome become challenges to your creative thinking skills. You can accomplish this; I feel it in my old bones 🥰
Love this Village! Inexpensive and so homey 😊
Happy to hear it! ☺️
Wow!! That's something I would like 👍
This is Gonna b so Good THE🔥🔥🔥👍n Happy Friday😀….
Happy happy Friday! Hope you enjoy the community tour
I like her approach to life and her vision for the community, I am intrigued how it would be like to stay there and the area is like as I've never been to New Mexico.
New Mexico is such an interesting place, and definitely is enchanting. 😉😄 Hope you get to visit!
Looking at this Tiny Homes Community 🏡 is Beautiful and Well Maintained with Different Unique Homes. The Garden Area is Stunning with rise beds. Each Resident spoke about theirs are different now and seems Happy. Thanks for Sharing Enjoyed and Blessings 🙏❤️🥰😇 From Pennsylvania,USA
So happy to share! Thanks for the sweet feedback 😊 really is a wonderful place to call home!
Impressive and well thought out. Love the diversity of homes. You had me at container garden!
Love your Tiny Home community and rentals. Keep living your dreams 🤗
Thanks for explaining the park model. That might be my best option.
I've always loved stairs but with leukemia progressing, an upstairs bedroom may not work as well.
Just beautiful, lovely people & community, such an education
What an awesome woman and community. Thank you!!!
Sounds like a wonderful community! Wish there was something like this in panhandle of Florida!!
I reside in FTW TX. I am a desert rat from S.W. NM. I also love love Tiny Homes. God Bless U for Ur sharing
Thanks for watching! ❤️
Thank you Jill and you both for highlighting this beautiful community!! We’re planning for our new chapter of tiny home living and are open and happy to relocate from Los Angeles to the right place for us. Greatly appreciate keeping the lot rent low which is one of the key components of keeping tiny home living affordable for all of us❤️ Will be excited to check out this growing community !
You are most welcome! Best wishes with your research! Also please let us know in the future if you’d be interested in being featured ❤️
What a fun place she has going! I recognize the blue house and the owner. Her house is HUGE lol and very well designed!
Always perfect content on your channel! 💯
🥰 thank you very much!
Very nicely done. Looks like a nice friendly place to live!
Great philosophy towards others. I am enjoyimg meeting some of the other residents on this channel. This should be happening everywnere, including Canada where i live.
We 💯 agree!
Thanks guys👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Thank you for the video ❤
You're very welcome ☺️
River's Edge Tiny Home Village is one of those best kept secrets in the Valencia County Area. #valenciacounty #valenciabusinessdirectory#tinyhome
My first video with you and I truly enjoyed the experience. Looking forward to more.
Welcome and thank you!
Great Idea
Checked out her website, looks like she doesn't mind investors, which is great.
Your videos feed my soul!!!❤😊
Very happy to hear! 🥰💕💗
Cool looking place.
Cool place, cool lady. I can relate.
Great video.....great community😳😎🤔😄❣️💕❣️💕thank you.👍👍👍👍
You’re so welcome❣️☺️
I need a T-shirt like Janet's.
Hi are there openings for 2 people and a few dogs 😁💕🌹and someone to help out with the chores and your vision. Tusa and kari
Nice.
Yes, there is a huge demand for cheaper housing! IL does not really allow them.
Such a shame for any place in the US to make living affordably in alternative homes difficult. We need all the options we can get!
The problem with renting a lot is you never know when the rent will increase, and by how much. There aren't laws that limit mobile home park rent increases.
Australia really needs this as even long term caravan parks are reduced in number now yet the need is escalating.
What a shame! Seems like such a no-brained to allow more not less of these kinds of park provide affordable living. If only the rule makers used more logic to solve problems 🙃😅
@@TinyHouseExpedition they are using their logic but it’s definitely not in the interests of humanity.
Oh the cedar one is tiny!
So, you did all the plumbing and water set-up!?
She had some outside help but has done a ton by herself! 😅
That’s so awesome! Affordable housing. How far are you from the border? Nearest grocery store? Ottawa Ontario 🇨🇦
I wish they would allow in my area. It’s too bad
That is a good rate for lot rent but not if your income is only 600 a month.
That’s true. Unfortunately there really aren’t many places that you can rent for less than that so housing assistance would probably be required 🙂
How can someone make it without housing assistance on 1,000. a month? I have to live on that amt. with my physically disabled adult daughter.
Good question! Here’s a low end monthly expense estimate for a low income single person, $1200-broken down:
$400 lot rent & sewer, $45 water & electric, $50 internet, $25 mobile phone, $175 Medicare or Medicaid health insurance & prescriptions, $400 groceries, $14.50 on-demand bus service or less (high speed rail free for seniors on certain days), $100 other. And add $300-500/month if you have an RV or tiny house monthly loan payment (could pay off on 10-15 years). 😅 Does that seem realistic?
@8:04 cool you caught an Orb coming in from the sky.
Think that was a solar flare 😃☀️💫
I say this about the young ppl as well. $20/hr n still hard to pay rent, car, car insurance, electricity, water etc. so for the elderly I definitely understand. I’m retired, how much for short term rental?
I can't figure out how she makes a living charging such low rent. There must be a lot of expenses to keep this community running.
Lovely community and I really like Jill's vision and ideas!

@Jill If you'd like inspiration to green your grounds check out Geoff Lawton's 'Greening the desert' project in Jordan:
ruclips.net/p/PL321kfqP1fZnWTPPpqZUN9ntP2-rjIP39&si=fijTIWyIYY636ZZd
Geoff is an expert in permaculture and his project has created an oasis in the desert.
I would like the community if it weren’t so close to the border. The wood work in the 1st tiny, but too small. The second wouldn’t even interest us.
Hi! We are in the middle of NM NOT near the border. However you need not 'fear' the border as it is only people who don't know the border and speak about what they don't know to make others scared. PS There are no immigrant "caravans" coming through here!
The first tiny house I didn’t like.
