An Examination of Mobile Homes in Rural Pennsylvania

January 01, 2009  | Rural People and Communities

This study, conducted in 2007-2008, sought to paint an accurate portrait of mobile homes and mobile home residents in rural Pennsylvania, and, from that portrait, identify mobile-home-related public policy considerations. To complete the study, the researchers conducted a phone survey of all 48 rural Pennsylvania county tax assessment and related offices to find mobile home data in electronic format. They used a representative sample of the data to determine the nature and geography of mobile homes in rural counties. Finally, they conducted a mail survey to learn more about mobile homes and their residents.
