        "text": "In many areas, including parts of San Diego County, placing a tiny home as an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) in your backyard is permissible, provided it meets specific local regulations. These regulations typically include minimum lot size requirements, setback distances from property lines, maximum height limits, and specific parking provisions. The tiny home, when used as an ADU, must also comply with building codes and often requires its own utility connections. It's essential to check the specific ADU ordinances for your city or unincorporated county area, as rules can differ significantly.",
