Most serfs lived on manors. These were farming estates that belonged to lords, and whose residents were mostly serfs. The serfs typically lived in a village or hamlet on the manor, in cottages.
Some serfs were not agricultural and worked as laborers. They typically lived in cottages in villages or boarding houses in towns.
Serfs lived on the estates associated with medieval manors or villas. They lived in very simple cottages, possibly of a single room, with walls made of stone or wattle and daub on wooden frames, and thatched roofs.
For a description of the serf's home, please see the related question below, "What were serfs homes like?"
Serfs were mostly agricultural and lived in hamlets and villages. A minority of them lived in towns and made up the laborers. I think it is safe to say that all towns had serfs living in them.
Most of the time they would live in their own little huts while they were not working. In the case of a flood the Lords MIGHT have let the serfs stay in the Manor.
