To do tasks and chores relating to being self-sufficient from the home. Examples would include: mucking the chicken coop, making jam, setting up a rain barrel, turning the compost, or even cleaning house.
Can't go out Saturday 'cause I have a long day os homesteading Sunday. I plan to install a rotating bookcase to a secret passageway or make muffins.

To do activities that may be considered old fashioned or unnecessary in modern times but connect one with hard work and pride in supplying one's own needs. Examples may include sewing, knitting, chicken farming, gardening for personal food supply, generating your own electricity, etc.
I'm really enjoying homesteading in the urban environment. Who knew that chicken farming would bring me so much closer to nature?!

Small town, lots of Hispanics, Blacks and Whites, high crime rate even though the police will deny it.

Homestead is the second oldest city in Miami-Dade County, after the city of Miami. It is located between Biscayne National Park and Everglades National Park. Homestead was incorporated in 1913, it is a suburb of Miami. The city made national news in 1992 when on August 24 Hurricane Andrew a Category 5 storm made landfall destroying the city. The town recovered. Unfortunately, the new problem that threatens life here is all the trash from Miami moving to Homestead.
Hurricane Andrew couldn't take down Homestead but it looks like this Miami trash will get the job done.
Homestead was a nice town until all the liberal crap from Miami started moving down here.
Non-Floridian: Where are you from?
Local: A town south of Miami
Non-Floridian: Are you from the keys? That place is great!
Local: Nope, I'm for a place called Homestead, just north of dirty ass Key Largo.
Non-Floridian: You mean the place that go hit with the Hurricane?!

A person who moves into a neighborhood at least seven years before the neighborhood becomes gentrified.
The Homesteader is very proud be a Homesteader.
The Homesteader enjoys regaling new residents with tales about all the homicides that took place where the Target now stands and the Starbucks that was previously a meth lab.
The Homesteader, if a homeowner, makes bank on selling. The Homesteader, if a renter, gets priced out within a year of the new fusion restaurant opening. Regardless, Homesteaders always find a new frontier to stake their claim.

Homesteader at one of the new brew pubs down the street, "When I moved here ten years ago no one had a smart phone. You had to agree to meet somewhere and show up. The only place you could get a beer was at a small dive bar. Cabs were too scared to come here. There were no bike lanes."
