I owned my own mobile home and when I retired and received my social security I thought it would be enough. But they raised the lot rent and utilities and I had to sell. I had thought I figured it out ok. I would not let my son help as he had his own family. My ex lives on a golf course and I live in low income housing. I am finally blessed on my 5th move to be somewhere nice and not full of drug addicts and scary people. I think senior housing should be only seniors but a lot of places let in so called disabled which were addicts. Party all the time it is not fair to seniors wanting a peaceful life.

I live in a large senior park that is still privately owned by the family who developed it. If the heirs decided to sell it, I hope they would give residents the offer. I don’t mind buying the land, paying more property tax and management fee to have a co-op park. Every park that was bought by investors is becoming hostile place to live and not maintained well.

Perhaps a good idea would be to proactively talk to your neighbors & go to a mortgage lender and work on making a bid on the property (as a group) yourselves.....before the owners get an offer from someone else. don't wait

Every park has the ability to become a resident owned cooperative. And look for funding through lower cost financing, from places like the cooperative fund of new england. look them up and see the stories.

My mother lived in a senior home park, she was lucky enough to not have a mortgage because their park was bought by a company out of the country and monthly lot rent has gone from a reasonable amount to over 600. per home, and these folks also have to pay property tax on their homes as well…so for most, it’s becoming hard to stay there. When there was a possibility of the home owners co oping their park, they were easily priced out of the bidding very early on, so they stay, until it just gets too much…

investors love parks because lot rent increases have no ceiling. Mobile homes are just not that mobile in reality. There used to be some on Rte 1 in Peabody mass. The town was trying for years to get rid of them,but they were owned by the residents,I think. I believe they are still there.I guess the purpose of the poor is to be exploited by the rich. Mass,. is a rich state and there is a solution to these problems. They just squandered 10 million on a hideous statue to honor MLK. I do honor him but that "art" work is horrible. Housing poor is not a priority.

"Mobile homes or manufactured homes are acceptable, but..." I got news for you sweetheart...if it gets delivered on axles, I don't care what you call it, IT'S A TRAILER. Plus...with lot rents averaging $700.00 or more per month for a tiny piece of land that one can never own; that's not "affordable". That's a mortgage payment.

What's a shame is the amount of land and natural resources that is utilized in order to accommodate people to say nothing about the ever encroachment on already endangered ecosystems. Mobile home parks are a scourge to indigenous populations such as native species of birds and other wildlife. Why can't these people move to other regions such as Mexico or Central America where the cost of living is much, much more affordable?
@marywood8794

Okay. 1.) Mobile home parks take up far less land area than traditional neighborhoods and not all are predominantly concrete. Many have rustic settings with surrounding vegetation remaining in tact for the wildlife. 2.) You are implying that other states that have different natural habitats, have no wildlife that live in those habitats, which isn't true. 3.) The actual issue is that Americans have been lead to believe that we must live in unnecessarily large houses that take up more land/more resources and therefore are more damaging to the natural environment and cost much more. Mobile homes aren't the problem. Most are much smaller than traditional homes and are 600-1000 square feet. We should all be moving toward smaller homes. This is why the tiny house movement has become so popular. It uses less land and resources to construct these homes.
@marywood8794

Okay. 1) Mobile home parks take up far less space, use less resources to build the homes and are less disruptive to wildlife than traditional neighborhoods. 2) Most people would have to move then to another country by your thinking unless they can pay $3,000 or more a month in rent. This shows that you obviously don't know how little the working poor earn, even in Massachusetts where our minimum wage is $15 an hour, and much higher than most states. If someone can't afford to pay $3,000 a month for their rent, where on earth would they get the extra cash to move abroad? More than likely they can't afford to move to another state nevermind another country! 3) The parks that they showed weren't in disrepair or unkempt. The real problem is that unlike in most other countries, Americans have been led to believe that if your home isn't 3,000 square feet that they live in a dump. This is why we have a housing crisis in the first place.

“These people”, you’re surely not talking about people whose family has always called Massachusetts home for multiple generations? My family has called the area home for hundreds of years and I through divorce has suddenly become one of those people… so you’re saying I should have to move to another country instead of being able to live in an affordable home?
