[StBernard] Modular Homes

[Westley Annis]

Bianca,

I don't think this is what they are talking about when they mention modular
homes for St. Bernard Parish.

The "mobile home builders" have tried to co-opt the modular home name to try
to lose the negative connotations of the terms trailer home or mobile home.
It's kinda like when Kentucky Fried Chicken wanted to pretend they were
healthy and changed their name to KFC.

These modular homes are built on slab foundations, not raised with wheels
removed.

My mother lives in a palm harbor, it's sturdy like a house, and she is in
Mississippi. The only damage she suffered was earth washing away and making
the trailer unlevel, which forced the top to pull apart, and the walls to
crack down the middle. She is trying to fix it now.  However considering the
damage that came through here that i see everyday, her home had barely
nothing wrong with it...she didnt even lose a shingle. I don't know why they
are being called modular homes though...they are trailers...double wide
maybe...but still trailers. Nice one's I can take some pictures of her's if
it helps. Supposed to be the strongest trailers made, BUT still trailers.
