A shipping container buried into a hill in the country would make a fine tornado shelter or emergency house.

I can tell that you haven’t been to Afghanistan!

If FoxBusinessInsider lists it, then you know that it’s a terrible idea because they have the IQs of squirrels there. They know nothing of the world.

Shipping containers make great storage units and terrible living units. Running plumbing, electrical, A/C, heat, and installing enough windows+lights makes the whole arrangement cost-negative.

They echo badly. They cut off your cell phone.

They are *storage* units. Portable. Just not condos.
