Abstract

The neglect of certain types of housing units in geographic research implies a loss of vital information concerning different aspects such as the problems of location, housing, and behavioral patterns. The characteristics of the residential units may be approximations of the characteristics of their occupants. An individual's characteristics are the determinants which exert their influence on his behavior by initiating or constraining his action. It may be argued that the occupants of different types of housing units tend to exhibit different behavioral patterns. The aim of this paper is to bring to the attention of geographers a neglected phenomenon in geographic investigation; the mobile home housing unit.
