Abstract
This survey research study examined equity and respect issues in mobile home rental parks. A random sample for this investigation included 895 manufactured homeowners residing in the state of California. Data were extracted through completion of a self-administered questionnaire. T-tests were employed to determine the existence of differences between gender responses. T-test results did not reflect any gender differences in subject responses to questionnaire items identified as addressing issues of equity and respect. Both male and female manufactured homeowners appeared dissatisfied with statements identified as equity and respect issues in mobile home rental parks. Analysis of survey items identified as addressing issues of equity and respect revealed that the most frequently selected response was strong disagreement. For example, 28.6% of the survey respondents did not perceive their park owners to be fair in dealing with them.
