In my experience, trailer parks have more strict rules than your average HOA. There is no way they would let you express this level of individuality. You must be poor and stifled

I think that one trip to the LC and lot fees on time, he’d be ok with it. Randy was a bumblebee after all

The Sunnyvale set was in Bible Hill.

Isn’t it kind of a baseless stereotype that people who live in trailer parks are poor too? They seem to cost more than an average apartment from what I’ve seen. And usually much less conveniently located so you absolutely have to drive everywhere. I just figured they were for people who wanted “yards” but couldn’t quite afford a real house.

I'm sure it's true that it costs more to live in a trailer than it does to own a home, but I don't see any rich people choosing it.

Granted this was like 7 years ago now but when we were living in a trailer, it was around $1100/month plus utilities. My mortgage is like $1200/month and that includes taxes and insurance. Also, we have 15 acres. My utility bills are about the same as when I lived in a trailer. It costs the same for me to hear or cool my 1100sq foot house as it did for my single wide trailer.

Where I live, most trailer parks are closer to the city centers and people that work lower paying jobs live in them. I had to move over a half hour away from the city I grew up in to be able to afford a house.

My friends that still rent are paying between $1500 and $1800 a month for a trailer these days.

It sucks out there. I feel really lucky that we bought when we did, and I feel really bad for people like my sisters and coworkers who are paying those high rents. Rent seems to go up about $100 a year around here and you don't get anything else for it. They don't update the living space or provide community third spaces in the parks. Just the same thing you already had but now it's more expensive. People I know are lucky to get a dollar raise a year as well.

Not sure what's going to happen when they price everyone out of being able to rent anything.

Before we bought our house, we bought a used camper and lived in that to save money. I'll never understand people that pay $100,000 for a "tiny house" when you can get a camper for a couple thousand dollars. Aesthetic I guess? For what it's worth, I hated living in the camper

Damn. Looks like I’ve been doxxed and now people are spreading pics of my home on the internet.
