mobile home park

Manufactured housing neighborhood

A mobile home park is a tract of land divided into spaces that residents rent to place manufactured or mobile homes.

Despite the name, these homes rarely move once installed.

Parks typically provide utilities, roads, and sometimes shared amenities.

Residents own their homes but not the land beneath them—a distinction that creates unique vulnerabilities around rent increases and eviction: The mobile home park was sold to developers, leaving residents scrambling.
