Move in With Family
Accessory dwelling unit (adu)
an adu (sometimes called an "in-law apartment," "accessory apartment," or a "second unit") is a second living space within a home or on a lot. It has a separate living and sleeping area, a place to cook, and a bathroom.
If you or a loved one owns a single-family home, adding an adu to an existing home may help you keep your independence. Space like an upper floor, basement, attic, or over a garage may be turned into an adu. Family members may be interested in living in an adu in your home, or you may want to move into an adu at a family member’s home.
