(More customer reviews)Manufactured housing is the fundamental housing safety net here in Western North Carolina, as it is in much of the rural south. Mobile home parks provide housing for more people here than public housing and Section 8 put together, yet they aren't even on the radar screen for most policy makers. This Is My Home helps to change that, sharing the human stories of people living in manufactured housing, and showing how it is an essential component of any comprehensive affordable housing plan. With both excellent photos and personal stories, it's also an engaging and attractive read.
