Abstract:
North Carolina is one of the top producers of manufactured homes, ranking fourth in the nation through the first three months of 1983. Approximately six percent of the state's population lives in manufactured homes, or about 350,000 people. In 1976, U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) standards for mobile homes went into effect. This created uniform quality of construction and drove the marginal home manufactures out of business.
