    Trailer homes can be a very affordable path to homeownership. In rural areas it’s not an uncommon choice to find a plot of land and plop a manufactured home on it. They don’t have the same kind of staying power or value that a site-built structure would have, but it opens the possibility of getting some land and a home separately, especially if you buy an old one that needs some work and move it (and even moreso if you can do some or all of that work yourself)

    Living in a trailer suggests more wealth than renting at least

      That’s interesting information. Now, out of the population of people living in trailers, what percentage are doing it in order to achieve the plan you laid out, and how many are doing it because of abject poverty?

      And how many of those are out there impregnating sisters in succession before the first child hasn’t even been born yet?
