Mobile home park residents form co-ops to save their homes

When residents learned the park’s owner was looking to sell, they formed a cooperative and bought it themselves amid worries it would be redeveloped. Since becoming owners in September 2022, residents have worked together to manage and maintain the park.

Just finished watching A Decent Home, a new documentary about the affordable housing crisis and specifically threats to the manufactured housing stock. Highly recommend.
