how close can two villager houses be next to each other?

It's 2 squares due to how the buffer zones work with the houses.
 
2 squares diagonal, and on either side, but about 4 or so in front and back due to the doors and whatnot
 
Side-by-side the closest can be 2 spaces apart.
If it's one on top of the other or vertically, 3 spaces apart
 
The closest I've ever had is 3, but I dunno for sure about 2. It's just never happened for me.

Houses have a 1-square buffer zone at their sides, which means two squares is the minimum distance two houses can have next to each other. In my town, Deirdre and Yuka planted their houses directly next to each other two squares apart, as did Bruce and Skye. ^^
 
I've been in dream towns were I guess people were plot resetting, because I've seen them in straight lines only 2 spaces apart, so I would say 2 spaces is the closest they can be to each other.
