In the 17th century, witches were often believed to live on the fringes of society, in rural areas or isolated communities. They were commonly associated with small, humble homes or cottages, often near forests or other natural features that were thought to harbor supernatural powers. Additionally, in some cases, witches were believed to inhabit more urban environments, blending in with the general populace while engaging in practices that were deemed suspicious or heretical by the authorities. Overall, their living situations reflected the societal fears and stigmas surrounding witchcraft during this period.
