Millions of Americans live in mobile home parks. It's one of the cheaper places to buy a home.

But private investors have been buying up parks in Massachusetts and across the country, threatening to raise fees or close the parks altogether.

WBUR’s Simon Rios has been exploring the issue this week. He takes us to a community near Cape Cod, where residents decided to fight back.

This segment aired on December 9, 2022.
