I live on Social Security and all of these Beach Towns is out of my league. I happened to find a Seniors mobile home park that I can actually afford. It is a Resident owned Mobile Home Park with No Renting allowed. In 2015 I bought my Mobile Home that was seriously Dirt Cheap and my space fee is also way cheaper than all of these Beach Towns by far. <br>And have all of the amenities of a big town including Medical. Hospitals and etc.<br>Thanks for the Info.👍

They are crazy! The median priced home in Morro Bay is $965,000. That's going to be smaller and might need updates. <i>Nothing</i> is cheap in San Luis Obispo County, especially housing.

Anyone who thinks of retiring in a mobile home community, no matter if you’re by the ocean or have great mountain vistas, you must own the land your home is on. Just recently a small, but beautiful mobile home community overlooking a beautiful area near Santa Cruz, way up above the beach was taken over by the landowners. Doesn’t matter that you own the RV. You have to leave

Well written! Great comments, and content… As a Northern California I get it… There’s nothing like living in a small town in northern California!

The Morro Bay prices are SO wrong! You can't touch a one-bedroom rental under $2000.

Fog, wind, cold, dreariness, vehicles destroying beaches, chaos, military presence, emptiness, poverty, alcoholism, absence of services and entertainment, boredom... Kill me now.

I don’t like beaches where trucks and cars rip up the sand, drive right by you as you are trying to relax. No way.

People that rent a space at a Mobile Home Park also have the same requirements as renting an apartment which is (three times the rent) in income. Let alone any pets and credit.
