The mobile home park industry has been around for about 70 years, starting in the early 1950s. And the challenges that park owners have faced have changed dramatically over those years. In this Lecture Series Event we’re going to explore what those hurdles have been, and how the industry has adapted to those challenges and continues to morph itself as time goes on.

The speaker will be Frank Rolfe, who has been studying the mobile home park industry for the past 25 years in trying to unlock the science of how to make parks successful, as well as to understand what can be learned from its history and past performance. The New York Times calls Frank the “human encyclopedia of all things mobile home park” and it’s a title that he earned through constant assemblage of mobile home park history and reading the rarest of “trailer park” publications.
