Salem Tiny Home Zoning & Building Requirements

Zoning: Salem permits accessory dwelling units in most residential zones, though rural areas in Marion and Polk counties often provide greater flexibility for park model placements. Always verify current setbacks with local planning departments.

Permits: Urban placements in Salem generally require building permits for utility and septic connections; RVIA-certified park model homes may qualify for RV permits in rural county locations.
