The historic town of Nicodemus has struggled to increase its population for decades, and descendants of original settlers are concerned that without new residents, the town could perish. Just a few dozen people are now living in Nicodemus, but town leaders think they have found a tiny solution to a big problem. “The tiny homes project,” says Dr. JohnElla Holmes, who helped pioneer the program. “Why don’t we do tiny homes which would be more affordable, would definitely help them scale back, and would also help our community grow?” Holmes wrote a grant with the Dane Hanson Foundation to fuel the project. So far, two tiny homes have been constructed, and another is in the works.
