I understand Indiana has a "Log Cabin Law," permitting homeowners more leeway than in most locales regarding houses they build themselves on their own land for their personal use, even within city limits. Sounds like it might be one of the few places one would be allowed to place a tiny house. Experiences?

If the tiny house has wheels, it's a mobile home. I'm pretty sure the Log Cabin Law wouldn't apply to it. However, at least in Marion County, you can seek a variance to build a tiny home. You'll still have to comply with health codes, e.g., water & sewer hookups.

Correct; it has to be on a foundation or pad (permanent structure); not on wheels.
