What are clusters of dwellings?

A cluster of dwellings is like a group of houses or homes that are close together, sharing space and maybe even some fun things to do.

Imagine you have a toy box full of small cars, each car is like a house. Now, if you push all those little cars together so they're touching or almost touching, that’s just like clusters of dwellings in real life!

A cluster doesn’t need to be huge, it can be as simple as two houses next door to each other, or even several homes around a small park. Sometimes, people live in clusters because they want to share things, like gardens, playgrounds, or even a big wall that protects them all from the wind.

You might find clusters of dwellings in cities, where many houses are built close together, or in villages, where homes feel cozy and connected. It's like when you and your friends sit together during lunch, you're making a little cluster of people!

So next time you see a group of houses that are close together, think of them as a friendly bunch of neighbors having a chat!
