If you don't need X, you can reclaim space by removing x11-common. I
like to run on the eMMC myself, mainly because I keep loosing the micro
SD cards :)

I recommend looking through the installed packages and removing what you
don't need. There is a great Debian wiki page on how to do this:
https://wiki.debian.org/ListInstalledPackages .

This command also appears to work as well:

dpkg-query -Wf '${Installed-Size}\t${Package}\n' | sort -n

Lastly, I've seen recommendations to install the wajig package to
determine the size of all packages installed. However, it takes about
14.4 MB:

The following NEW packages will be installed:
  python3 python3-apt python3-minimal python3.2 python3.2-minimal wajig
0 upgraded, 6 newly installed, 0 to remove and 60 not upgraded.
Need to get 4,514 kB of archives.
After this operation, 14.4 MB of additional disk space will be used.
Do you want to continue [Y/n]? n

Ironically, you may not have enough space to install this package :p
