A home is a place of residence or refuge. It is usually a place in which an individual or a family can rest and be able to store personal property. Most modern-day households contain sanitary facilities and a means of preparing food. Animals have their own homes as well, living either in the wild or in a domesticated environment.There are certain cultures in which members lack permanent homes, such as with nomadic people.
While a house or a residential dwelling is often referred to as a "home", the concept of "home" expresses itself upon a much broader denotation of a physical dwelling. Many people think of home in terms of where they grew up or where they lived, a place that brings back old memories or feelings, and a home can even be a time rather than an actual place. Some people like using the phrase, "There's no place like home".

The word "home" can be used for various types of residential institutions in which people can live in, such as nursing homes, group homes (orphanages for children, retirement homes for seniors, prisons for criminals, treatment facilities, etc.), and foster homes. "Home is were the heart is".

In computer terminology, a 'home' is a starting view that branches off into other tasks,such as eating or biteing e.g. a homepage or a desktop. Many such home pages on the internet start with introductory information, recent news or events, and links to subpages. (HAHA you thought you could buy one)
