[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 528166, member: 1550"] Thanks, everyone. There has never been a tornado touch down here. There have been warnings, but really not enough to worry about and the park has a shelter. I will talk to hub about the insulation and upkeep...he is pretty handy. I *do* like the idea of close by neighbors. But apartments aren't very friendly. I've lived in them. They also often don't allow pets or they change their pet policies and you have to give up your pets...I'd rather live in a car than give up my babies. Not going to happen. I see many people on Craig's List giving up their pets because animal policies change...I don't trust apartments and pets. I am going to be 59 soon and hub is 56 (with a few health problems). I don't care about having a lot of property or if the value of the home goes down (actually house values aren't doing too well in this neck of the woods either...we could buy a nice two bedroom house with basement here for $55,000). But the stairs, the lots, everything...we don't need that anymore. I am going to talk to some of the people who live in the park. I drive through it a lot and the people are very friendly and wave to me. I'm sure if I walked around and got down to pet somebody's cute little pooch the person would talk to me about life in the park, including during storms that are just regular storms (not tornadoes). We are never going to be mortgage or rent free as we can't afford to buy anything this late in life and pay it off, so we want to minimize how much we'll have to pay. We would consider a single wide MH. Right now, we are just asking around. Thank you very much for the feedback. [/QUOTE]
