Hobbits are a race of people in his Middle-earth, characterized as a smaller, close relative of humans, averaging about half human height. They are also called "halflings" and are known for their peaceful, agrarian lifestyle, love of comfort, and simple pleasures such as eating multiple meals a day and smoking pipe-weed. Hobbits typically live in underground homes called "smials," built into hillsides, most famously in a region called the Shire. Their feet have tough, leathery soles and are covered with curly hair, so they do not wear shoes.
Harfoots
The most numerous and typical hobbits, smaller in stature and brown-skinned, living mostly in hills and farming. They were the first to come to Eriador and had closer relationships with dwarves.
Fallohides
 Taller, fairer hobbits known for being more adventurous and skilled with hunting and crafting.
Stoors
Stockier hobbits who lived near rivers and had affinities for boating and fishing.
Hobbits are generally shy and clannish, valuing genealogies and family traditions, with a culture that includes the giving of gifts on birthdays and collections of "mathoms" (useless but cherished objects).
Despite their peaceful nature, hobbits play central heroic roles, especially in "The Hobbit" and "The Lord of the Rings," where characters like Bilbo and Frodo Baggins undertake great adventures and pivotal quests.
Their origins are somewhat mysterious but are thought to be a branch of humans with some distinct evolutionary traits and cultural developments unique to Middle-earth. Hobbits appear early in the Third Age.
