Cluster Housing is a subdivision technique where detached dwelling units are grouped closely together, leaving shared open spaces as common areas. This design promotes community interaction while preserving natural land and creating more efficient land use.
A zoning classification that allows flexibility in the design of a subdivision, enabling a mixture of land uses and housing types in a defined area. PUD zones generally set an overall density limit for the entire development, allowing for clustering of dwelling units to provide common open spaces and amenities.
Zero lot line development refers to houses built directly on the boundary of the lot, leaving little to no yard space. This construction style maximizes land use and is often seen in densely populated urban areas.
