In Singlewide, Sonya Salamon and Katherine MacTavish explore the role of the trailer park as a source of affordable housing. America's trailer parks, most in rural places, shelter an estimated 12 million people, and the authors show how these parks serve as a private solution to a pressing public need. Singlewide considers the circumstances of families with school-age children in trailer parks serving whites in Illinois, Hispanics in New Mexico, and African Americans in North Carolina. By looking carefully at the daily lives of families who live side by side in rows of manufactured homes, Salamon and MacTavish draw conclusions about the importance of housing, community, and location in the families' dreams of opportunities and success as signified by eventually owning land and a conventional home. Working-poor rural families who engage with what Salamon and MacTavish call the "mobile home industrial complex" may become caught in an expensive trap starting with their purchase of a mobile home. A family that must site its trailer in a land-lease trailer park struggles to realize any of the anticipated benefits of homeownership. Seeking to break down stereotypes, Salamon and MacTavish reveal the important place that trailer parks hold within the United States national experience. In so doing, they attempt to integrate and normalize a way of life that many see as outside the mainstream, suggesting that families who live in trailer parks, rather than being "trailer trash," culturally resemble the parks' neighbors who live in conventional homes.

"La flambée des prix du logement qui s’est amorcée à partir des années 2000 a conduit à des difficultés sociales de plus en plus massives sur l’ensemble du territoire français. Ni le logement social ni le principe d’un droit au logement opposable n’ont apporté de solutions satisfaisantes et le nombre des mal-logé·es et des sans-logis n’a cessé de croître. Le sociologue Gaspard Lion identifie un phénomène nouveau, reflet de cette crise sociale majeure : le « camping résidentiel » qui a gagné la France en écho aux trailer parksétasuniens. À partir d’une enquête ethnographique menée en immersion dans cinq campings de la région parisienne durant quatre ans, ce livre saisit, dans leur diversité et leur intimité, les vies quotidiennes de celles et ceux qui ont fait du camping leur domicile. Ainsi, ce livre dévoile la condition sociale d’une portion croissante des classes populaires qui vit inaperçue aux marges des grandes villes, et expose une forme, jusqu’ici inexplorée, de logement et de précarité, révélatrice de changements structurels à l’oeuvre dans la société française."

"In rural northern Idaho in winter 2013-14, Syringa Mobile Home Park's water system was contaminated by sewage, resulting in residents' water being shut off for 93 days. By summer 2018 Syringa had closed, forcing residents to relocate or face homelessness. Trailer Park America chronicles how residents dealt with regulatory agencies, frequent boil order notices, threats of closure, and class-based social stigma over this period. Despite all this, what was seen as a dysfunctional, 'disorderly' community by outsiders was instead a refuge where veterans, women heads of households, and people with disabilities or substance use disorders were supported and understood. The embattled Syringa community also organized to defend the rights and dignity of residents and served as a site for negotiating with local government, culminating in a class-action lawsuit that reached the federal level. The experiences Syringa residents faced in this conservative, predominately white region of the United States are emblematic of the growing national and global crisis in affordable housing and home ownership, with declining work conditions and incomes for the working-class as leading edge"--
