(25,948 posts)referred to necessarily lives in a trailer. Nor do I consider all who live in trailers to be trash. I actually lived in one for several months when I was first out on my own. And I currently have friends who live in trailers/trailer parks.
From what I've observed, the biggest downside to almost every trailer park I've ever seen is that the units are so abominably close to each other. There are maybe ten or so feet between them, not the relative spaciousness of small homes on the oft-belittled quarter acre. So they have tiny, tiny yards, no privacy, and that's my personal objection to living in a trailer park.
But manufactured homes themselves, especially if they are relatively new and better yet a double wide, can be quite luxurious and roomy.
