Mobile homes are affordable to many residents. In fact, they are considered the largest source of unsubsidized affordable housing in the country. Mobile home parks provide these affordable homes in a community setting, and can include shared amenities such as playgrounds or pools. These parks can be owned and operated cooperatively or as part of a land trust, which gives residents greater control and the ability to build equity and wealth in their home.
