i am a property manager for a company that owns over 200 mobile home courts, apartment complexes, strip malls, and leases buildings to various other businesses. i am fine with all the businesses, malls, and most of the apartments. what is totally depressing is just how badly people live in mobile homes.
granted, there are some older folks who take care of their homes and the land we lease to them, but on the other hand, there are total dirtbags who dont give a shit about anything. it is getting worse as well. heroin, fentanyl, crack, meth, pills, covid, and basically the daily news is really hitting that community hard, and they really didnt stand a chance to begin with. yet, i have no sorrow for people who dont give a shit and toss their lives out the window. it is their choice.
but i do care about their children. there are countless times i have seen drug addled parents toss their kids out into the streets of these parks, thinking that the park will be their babysitter. toddlers running down the street in full diapers that mommy forgot to change, children covered in bedbug sores, teens wearing clothes that would make john holmes blush because thats what they saw on instagram, and houses that would be condemned if the damn health department would do its job are all things that are so common, its mindboggling. i just dont understand why people dont give a fuck. these kids basically have no chance whatsoever in life because of the choices of their parents.
i know that most municipalities and townships hate "trailer parks" (a phrase i dont like to use) and only see them as tax revenue until they can get rid of them for something more favorable, but the people who live within them shouldnt be penalized for the type of home they live in.
