well the difference is that the tiny house movement is usually met with more resistance by codes and regulations. Mobile homes are in every case, movable and parked in rv parks. I think the tiny house movement is about being able to build your own house and not get penalized for it.

Sorry you're somewhat mixing trailer homes and RVs.

Anyway, yeah we aent talking about those I realize :).

Tiny houses are tinier.

Also, mobile home translates to:

Prefab housing that you dump in an undesirable corner of an undesirable city to stash uneducated uncreative unproductive humans. There might be lots of awesome folks in mobile homes, but fact remains that is the stereotype.
