Tiny home rules in Huntington, NY — covering tiny houses on wheels (THOWs), park model RVs, and tiny home on foundation builds — determine where they are legal and how they get permitted.
Tiny homes as permanent dwellings face significant barriers in Huntington. Minimum dwelling size requirements under Chapter 198 and the NYS Uniform Code typically require at least 500-700 sq ft depending on zone.
Huntington has no specific tiny home ordinance. Permanent tiny homes on foundations must meet minimum dwelling size requirements of the zoning district (typically 500 sq ft or more for a habitable unit) and NYS Uniform Building Code. Tiny homes on wheels (THOWs) are regulated as recreational vehicles; long-term residential use of RVs on private property is prohibited under Chapter 198. Accessory dwelling-style tiny homes would need to meet accessory apartment rules. No tiny home villages are currently permitted.
Living in a non-conforming dwelling or RV on residential property violates Chapter 198 and may result in eviction orders and fines.
