American homes come in a variety of styles and sizes. Many single-family homes have garages, modern kitchens, living rooms, and playrooms for children. Upstairs there are typically multiple bedrooms and bathrooms. Wealthier families may own second homes in cities or suburbs. Americans take pride in their homes and enjoy decorating them. The history of American housing styles can be seen in the architecture of homes across the country, from Native American pueblos to colonial homes. Suburban developments expanded after World War II, often organized around themes like street names. Suburban homes typically have large backyards and are comfortable for families. Mobile homes located in trailer parks provide more affordable housing.
