Living Tiny in San Francisco: How One Man Found a Solution to High Rent Prices

The rent prices for one bedroom apartments in San Francisco can often top $3,500 per month. So what do you do if you can’t find anything more affordable? Peter Berkowitz had an answer – construct a 28 sq ft. “pod” inside the home of a friend.

This tiny bedroom includes LED lighting, a small window to let daylight in, and even fold-down table perfect for working. Despite the tiny space, Berkowitz refers to it as “the coziest bedroom I’ve ever had.”

Living small means rent of only $508 per month – far lower than renting out a single bedroom elsewhere in the city. This is one example of how tiny houses are becoming increasingly popular as an alternative to expensive housing markets like San Francisco.
