Mobile homes, or manufactured homes, are a unique type of dwelling. An estimated 22 million people live in modular or manufactured homes in the United States. They are often more affordable than stick-built homes, and their transportability makes them unique. Mobile or manufactured homes tend to be particularly susceptible to wind damage, making tie-downs a necessity. Because mobile homes are in many ways a combination of a home and a vehicle, coverage needs to address these unique features.
