}}Just Room Enough Island, also known as Hub Island[1], is an island located in the Thousand Islands chain in the United States. The island is known for being the smallest inhabited island, which appears to be around 3,300 square feet, or about one-thirteenth of an acre. Purchased by the Sizeland family in the 1950s, the island has a house, a tree, shrubs, and a small beach.[2]

History

The island was bought in the 1950s by the Sizeland family, who wanted a holiday getaway and built a house there.[2] Because of the island's small size, in 2010, the Washington Post stated, "One misstep and you're swimming".[3]

Geography

Just Room Enough lies on the Saint Lawrence River between Heart Island and Imperial Isle, close to the US border with Canada. The island belongs to Alexandria Bay,[1] a village part of the town of Alexandria, Jefferson County, New York.
