In many areas of Greenland and regions of arctic Canada with few trees , like Baffin Island, the people built snow houses for use in winter. These houses shaped like domes are built of blocks of snow ,that are known as igloos. (The natives themselves call any kind of shelter an igloo, not just snow houses.)

In other parts of the north like Canada, Greenland, and in Alaska, some natives built winter homes of turf and stone while others packed layers of earth over frames of driftwood or whale bones. These homes usually had one room and sleeping benches covered with caribou hides. In summer, almost all tribes lived in tents made of seal or caribou skins sewn together with sinews.

in the summer Eskimo's build there houses out of sod most of the time, but some times they make them out of bones or little snow because it is still snowy out side but not as much snow as in the winter but some of the times the snow melts because the reflection from the snow is so bright that it melts the snow

The dwelling of the Inuit is a turf hut or a mobile tent of hide. The igloo is meant as a temporary shelter made of snow.

Turf huts are more permanent as they insulate well and can be occupied throughout the seasons. The hide tents are used during the summer months when they go hunting or fishing abroad. The word 'igloo' means roughly 'house' and can be used for basic survival needs.

Houses. Most Eskimos have adapted to modern culture. Eskimos living in igloos is an urban legend. They only used them before machinery when they got stuck in blizzards.

You might be looking for Igloo, but most Eskimos live in regular houses and apartments.
