Are we talking trailer park mobile homes or the kind people use to vacation? Also, manufactured homes shouldn't be lumped in with mobile homes.

Also, tangential, but I think tiny homes are kinda neat although they're basically mobile homes for yuppies.

Agreed. Modular homes are made to a much higher standard than true mobile homes that you typically find in a trailer park. They aren't really intended to be mobile beyond their initial transfer and setup at their permanent site.

Well when looking at searches online for available places, they lump them all together so while you may feel they shouldn't be lumped in, as far as realtor sites go they do. But no, I was talking about the traditional mobile home you'd find in a trailer park.

I'm moving out of this pest infested, slumlord controlled duplex house in this crime heavy neighborhood in one week. I'm moving into a lease to own mobile home in a very nice part of town. I remember living in a few of these growing up as a kid off an on, but haven't live in one since I was 13 (23 years ago) In the ones I lived in, early on when my parents were still together I remember it being very nice. Of course with my father being a carpenter/handyman he was always improving the places he lived in.

The shell is much older than I am but they've went all out on this place renovating it.

It's a 1970 New Moon. (Total price of trailer $13,000)

I'm torn between whether they are a responsible approach that grants suburban life without the sprawl, or if they are a cheap cop out provided by greedy banks that are funding their development that allows them to increase the cost of standard homes because they can been seen as a "luxury" alternative to the baseline mobile home. I suppose, in that thought, that apartments could be seen as even worse, but whatever.

In reality, the number one reason why I'd never buy one is because of the type of people that usually live there.

Some seem cool to me but I don't think they are something practical that I'd actually have a need for unless I decided to go travelling or something.
