Off topic, they look like detached homes. Was there a conscious choice not to make duplexes, quads, or an apartment building? Tiny homes are just so weird to me... People will really do anything except stick units next to each other

It's nice not to have to listen to your neighbours through the walls

If you insulate against noise properly, you won't.

Yeah, the airgap between units is the cheapest form of noise insulation
