Wow! What a lot of diverse and good answers. I have one more that is sure to appeal to a few of you out there.
Imperial Bonita Estates is located in SW Florida and has absolutely the best weather. Our 55+ community has 86 activities - everything other parks have plus more!
Our monthly maintenance fee in the co-op (where we have our 60' mobile home with lanai and Florida room) is $113 per month! It was raised from $75 to $113 to more quickly pay off our mortgage. Last month that mortgage was burned! Guess what our monthly maintenance will be after the next board meeting! Our community also has an RV park which income basically supports itself and the co-op. You could rent here while you check out the community; or you could rent cheaper outside the park and still get a better basis for comparison. Looking to buy but still want to keep the RV? For co-op members with RV's they can park their unit in the RV storage lot for $5 per month IF they are co-op members - $10 in the boat storage area. By the way, the double-wide next to us is for sale. Those folk moved into the third part of our community, the Village in which
you own your own land, but have to pay all that is not covered in the co-op. Send me a private message if you want more information. I can relate much more, but this is too long now as it is!
