Where Does Josh Duggar Live? Inside His Twisted, Windowless World

May 26, 2021

Where do the Duggars - specifically Josh - live?

It's a frequently asked question, especially lately.

For many fans of the famous family, the Duggar homestead is a familiar sight, dating back to simpler, less controversial times.

Jim Bob and Michelle built a 7,000-square foot Arkansas pad with the proceeds from their first TLC specials way back in the day.

Many years, kids and scandals later, the house serves as the setting for two reality shows - and some large family gatherings. 

Of course, much of the younger Duggar generation has grown up and moved out ... some more successfully than others.

Before he got nabbed by the feds, Josh Duggar's living arrangement in particular had been the subject of much debate.

His accomodations, along with wife Anna and their many children, were not what you'd expect given his parents' wealth.

The confines of the main house have also been under renewed scrutiny, given that it's where Josh's first scandal arose.

Below, we go inside the compound and the modest digs where the 33-year-old spent (possibly) his last days as a free man.

1. The Compound

Dh 1
Every Counting On fan is familiar with the massive Tontitown property known as the Duggar compound. But these days, several of Jim Bob and Michelle's kids have left the nest to establish homes of their own.

2. The Beginning ...

Dh 17
The Duggars' story begins here, in this much more modest home in nearby Springdale, Arkansas. Not the kind of place in which you would want to raise 19 kids.

3. A Humble Start

When the Duggars made their TV debut on Discovery Health, the network helped them with construction costs for their new home in Tontitown. Execs also filled up the family's pantry, something Jim Bob and Michelle had difficulty doing in those days.

4. The Living Room

The Duggars love the great outdoors (especially their big backyard) but when they're inside the compound, this sprawling living room - with its sky-high ceilings - serves as the site of more Counting On scenes than any other.

5. The Master Bedroom

Dh 15
And this - as they used to say on MTV's Cribs - is where the magic happens. Jim Bob and Michelle's bedroom has been the site of an awful lot of baby-making.

6. The Master Bath

Dh 14
And this is the bathroom off of Jim Bob and Michelle's room. We're guessing this was roughly the size of the living room in their first house.
