What You Need to Know About ADUs and JADUs in California
An Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) is a separate living space on your property, either attached to or detached from your home. It has everything needed for independent living, like a kitchen and bathroom.
A Junior Accessory Dwelling Unit (JADU) is a smaller unit, up to 500 square feet, located entirely within an existing home. It can have its own bathroom or share one.
California makes it easier to build these units and local governments are required to help streamline the approval process.
