Well, in Catching Fire, she lives in the Victor's Village neighboring Peeta and Haymitch(in District 12). That house is fairly large, including some things that her old house didn't have, like hot water. In Mockingjay, she goes to District 13, because Katniss's district got destroyed by the Capitol. All of District 12 and 13 live in an underground building. Katniss and her family lives in 3 small "compartments", and one compartment in a bunker. Katniss didn't describe much about these homes in the book. I hoped it helped! Sorry if it was a little too descriptive.

The original Constitution accepted slavery and made provisions for how slaves were to be counted for state representation in the House of Representatives. It is a flawed POLITICAL document. Drawn up during a time of compromise.
