text: where is the most economical place to live and work in america? if buying a used mobile home, which deal is better; land & home pkg.- land w/o hm.- home w/o land - lot space??? you asked two questions -   buying a moble home with land is always better than a home in a park.    with a park you get: * monthly rent that can go up * rule about what you can/can't do with yard, fencing, etc * rules about guests, pets etc * possibility of sale of park - either new managment or closing the park leaving you with an old trailer to move and nowhere to go.  as for best place to live - you have to do some research: http://www.bestplaces.net/ http://money.cnn.com/best/bplive/ http://www.gsa.gov/portal/gsa/ep/contentview.do?programid=9704&channelid=-15943&ooid=16365&contentid=17943&pagetypeid=8203&contenttype=gsa_basic&programpage=%2fep%2fprogram%2fgsabasic.jsp&p=mtt
