Courtest of Marcel LeBrun
- Millionaire Marcel LeBrun is building a tiny-home village in Canada, just north of the Maine border.
- It has 78 homes that rent for as little as $200 a month to formerly unhoused people.
- Residents aged 18 to 71 have access to a laundry room, medical services, and career training.
It's been nearly two years since 12Neighbours, a tiny-home village in Canada, welcomed its first resident.
The micro-home community in Fredericton, New Brunswick, was founded by Marcel LeBrun, a former tech industry executive who sold his social-media listening startup to Salesforce for about $340 million in 2011.
LeBrun said he wanted to revolutionize how communities approach housing assistance.
