Home as constitutionally mobile and transient has been contended by anthropologists and sociologist.<ref>{{Cite journal |last1=Giorgi |first1=Sabina |last2=Fasulo |first2=Alessandra |date=2013 |title=Transformative Homes |url=https://www.tandfonline.com/action/showCitFormats?doi=10.2752/175174213X13589680718418 |journal=Home Cultures |language=en |volume=10 |issue=2 |pages=111–133 |doi=10.2752/175174213x13589680718418 |hdl=11573/661762 |s2cid=143558011 |issn=1740-6315 |hdl-access=free}}</ref> A [[mobile home]] (also known as a house trailer, park home, trailer, or trailer home) is a [[prefabrication|prefabricated]] structure, built in a factory on a permanently attached chassis before being transported to site (either by being towed or on a trailer). Used as permanent homes, or for holiday or temporary accommodation, they are often left permanently or semi-permanently in one place, but can be moved, and may be required to move from time to time for legal reasons.

A [[houseboat]] is a [[boat]] that has been designed or modified to be used primarily as a home. Some houseboats are not motorized, because they are usually [[moored]], kept stationary at a fixed point and often tethered to land to provide utilities. However, many are capable of operation under their own power. Float house is a Canadian and American term for a house on a float (raft); a rough house may be called a shanty boat.<ref>{{cite book |author=Parry, M.

A traditional [[yurt]] or ger is a portable round tent covered with skins or [[felt]] and used as a dwelling by several distinct [[Nomad|nomadic groups]] in the [[Eurasian Steppe|steppes of Central Asia]]. The structure consists of an angled assembly or latticework of wood or [[bamboo]] for walls, a door frame, ribs (poles, rafters), and a wheel (crown, compression ring) possibly steam-bent. The roof structure is often self-supporting, but large yurts may have interior posts supporting the crown. The top of the wall of self-supporting yurts is prevented from spreading by means of a tension band which opposes the force of the roof ribs. Modern yurts may be permanently built on a wooden platform; they may use modern materials such as steam-bent wooden framing or metal framing, canvas or tarpaulin, plexiglass dome, wire rope, or [[radiant barrier|radiant insulation]].
