New Yorkers have lived on houseboats since the 19th century, docking across several boroughs.[1] Historically, houseboat dwellers were typically men who worked on barges in the Hudson River.[1] Since the 1940s, houseboat inhabitants have mostly chosen to live aboard for pleasure.[1] Boats offer cheap housing, good views, and privacy.[1][2] In 1999, it was estimated to be several hundred houseboats in the city.[1]
