Those who live in the mountainous areas are usually farmers in the valleys growing and raising crops and livestock. Tats living in the mountains have communities on the ledges of the mountains where they live with about 100 other families. The temperature in the mountains is usually 40-77 degrees fahrenheit depending on the time of year and elevations of the mountain.

Mussulman Tats that live in the more rural areas live in the original home of their ancestors in villages in the valleys in the mountains of Iran and Azerbaijan. The homes are either one or two stories tall and those that are two stories have some type of store of business on the first floor and the living area on the second. The homes have flat roofs and a rectangular shaped body made out of stones cemented with clay. Within the rural communities,  there are mosques, bathing areas, and wells for those living in the area.
