Tiny Folk Villages: Golden Park
.
There is a thriving Tiny Folk village (they call all of their settlments “villages”, regardless of size) in San Francisco’s Golden Gate Park. It’s been there since 1873, three years after the park opened. As of 2020, it houses 35,000 Tiny Folk, the second largest village in the world.
The entire park is home to the little people, especially the various buildings, including the De Young Museum, Academy of Sciences and Conservatory of Flowers. Several humans that works in these places know and are friends with tht Tiny Folk
Strawberry Hill in the middle of Stow Lake is home to about 9,000 of the Folk, with most of them living inside the hill in tunnels and a few constructed caverns. One tunnel, called the Strawberry Highway, goes under the lake and comes out near the western edge of the park, not far from the beach.
The Golden Park Tiny Folk spend a lot of each day scrounging up things humans lose or discard. They also do what they can to aid animals in need, all the while avoiding the burgeoning coyote population.

Tiny Folk Villages: Redwood
.
In Humboldt Redwoods State Park, in northwestern California, you can find the Tiny Folk village of Redwood. Established by previously nomadic Folk who lived in the are, today it is a small community of 400 people. Another 3,000 Folk live in the surrounding forest.
Redwood has a very frontier vibe, with the Folk living there being pretty much untouched by big city ways. Animals, especially squirrels and chipmunks, mingle and even live with the Folk. They supply transprtation, shed hair and milk, while the Folk offer protection from predators.
Redwood is home to one of the wildest events in North American Tiny Folk culture, the Great Redwood Race. Taking place as high as 200 feet in the air, this madcap and dangerous race involves Tiny Folk running, leaping and swinging from tree to tree. While only a few Tiny Folk have ever died during the race, injuries are very common. A somewhat saner race is the Uspsy Downy, which involves riding squirrels up one side and down the other of a 250 foot tall tree.
