Homestead
A homestead traditionally refers to a parcel of land granted or owned, often for farming or settlement purposes. In the U.S. context, under laws like the Homestead Act, a typical homestead was:
160 acres (about 65 hectares) of public land granted to settlers.
Used to encourage settlement and cultivation.
Today, the term can also mean a familyโs residence and surrounding land, especially a farm or ranch.
