Cheap living in Arizona is easily doable in the many park model communities in the Grand Canyon state.
How cheap? A used, furnished park model can be purchased for $15,000. We know that to be a fact because good friends from Oregon did so in Mesa last November. We tore out the carpet, put new wood floors in and repainted the interior. Material costs were less than $600, labor was free, and that place is looking spiffy.
If you want a new single wide 400 square foot park model, they range from $20,000 to $50,000. For under $80,000 for a double wide, 1100 square feet, you can buy in a very nice Arizona park model community. Try to duplicate that kind of value in a stick built home neighborhood
Your monthly homeowner's dues range from $200 to $750, with $350 to $400 a month being the norm. This covers your common areas, park employees, park lighting and security...most parks are gated with excellent security.
Costs you eliminate by moving to one of these Arizona parks are exterior maintenance...no lawn to maintain, leaves to rake, etc. If you miss your riding lawnmower I promise you will quickly get over it.
The major attraction of these communities, besides offering cheap living, is the activities they provide. It is like summer camp or being on a cruise ship...a lot of choices for fun and recreation, with you being in control, doing as much or as little as you want.
Another plus to this cheap living in Arizona is the fact that you are breathing the same air and scenery as the million dollars mansions located half a mile from these parks. You both enjoy the same shopping and cultural activities.
So cheap living in Arizona is easily done and the recreational opportunities in these park model communities are unmatched. Enjoy.
