Some alternative housing can be as small as while others can be as large as depending on the structure.

In advanced nations like the United Kingdom domestic violence victims may have difficulties getting alternative housing which can force them to stay in the abusive relationship.

The Municipality, in turn, appealed to the Constitutional Court, which held that there is no unqualified constitutional duty on local government to provide alternative housing in terms of PIEs 6(3).

In Blue Moonlight Properties v Occupiers of Saratoga Avenue,2009 (1) SA 470 (W). the respondent, a private landowner, served a notice of eviction on the occupiers.

Since reunification a combination of decreasing population, renovation of older buildings, and construction of modern alternative housing has led to high vacancy rates, with some estimates placing the number of unoccupied units at around a million. Many plattenbau apartments were built in giant settlements, often on the edge of cities (such as Marzahn and Hellersdorf in Berlin and Halle-Neustadt), making them inconveniently located. Their inconvenient locations were likely also a factor in their rapid deterioration. However, despite the centrally located buildings of the International Building Exposition in Berlin, the neighbourhood today is not considered particularly desirable, and is characterised by deserted streets and apartment buildings isolated from one another in a lifeless garden.

Developers would typically offer relatively low compensation to the residents, reflecting the pre-development value of their properties or the cost of obtaining alternative housing elsewhere. Should residents resist, or try to take advantage of their bargaining position, powerful developers could persuade local officials and courts to order residents off the land. In other cases, residents would be arrested on false charges or thugs would be hired to scare away the residents. More recently, the PRC has begun to accept private ownership of real estate, including the still-controversial notion that owners are free to earn money when their land becomes more valuable due to planned developments, or even simply not to sell.

While alternative living can be quite expensive, other options for low budget alternative housing are pallet homes, camping as a lifestyle, or even living in a community such as a Habitat for Humanity community such as Twin Creeks Village located in Everett, WA. or the tiny home villages of Detroit, MI. Many Americans struggle each year to make ends meet which is resulting in the growth of these low budget housing options, with high hopes of building their lives back up. For instance, Detroit has a program designed for just this; Cass Community Social Services constructs tiny homes for families rebuilding their lives and credit. These alternative communities forge the way for families or single persons to make small monthly payments and utilities so they can own the tiny home and gain back credit.

In 2011, a group of Palestinians from the village of Deir Jarir claiming ownership over the land on which the outpost sits, submitted a petition to the High Court of Justice to have the community of some 40 families removed. A Jerusalem District Court judge ruled in 2018 that the settlement doesn't need to be razed because it was built "in good faith" and the residents have rights to the property. The decision was based on a policy known as "market regulation" that could allow for the retroactive legalization of dozens of illegal hilltop communities from the West Bank. A Supreme Court ruling from August 2020 overturned this decision, recognizing the illegal character of the outpost and allowing for 36 months for the residents to be relocated to acceptable alternative housing.

Local residents of 15th Ave, Alexandra In the early 1960s, the government decided to demolish all family accommodation in Alexandra and replace them with single- sex hostels, which led to widespread resistance and protest. However, owing to the high costs, lack of alternative housing for the persons that would have to have been removed and the escalating opposition led by the Rev Sam Buti's Save Alexandra Party, only two hostels were actually completed, and so the scheme was cancelled in 1979. The riots that started in Soweto in June 1976 quickly spread to other areas such as Alexandra, where 19 people were killed. As a consequence of these riots, evictions, forced removals and expropriation of black properties were stopped; city blacks were no longer viewed as transient residents and their permanent status used to be recognised.

Forced eviction in the People's Republic of China refers to the practice of involuntary land requisitions from the citizenry, typically in order to make room for development projects. In some instances, government authorities work with private developers to seize land from villagers, with compensation below the market price. In many cases, they are also offered alternative housing instead of or on top of monetary compensation. Forced evictions are particularly common in rural areas, and are a major source of unrest and public protest.The Economist, “Protest in China: The Cauldron Boils”, 29 September 2005. By some estimates, up to 65 percent of the 180,000 annual mass conflicts in China stem from grievances over forced evictions.Elizabeth C. Economy, A Land Grab Epidemic: China’s Wonderful World of Wukans , Council on Foreign Relations, 7 February 2012. Some citizens who resist or protest the evictions have reportedly been subjected to harassment, beatings, or detention.
