Oceanaire Mobile Home Park

Mediocre management and ownership leaves much to be desired, but I still give them 3 stars because it is not a really bad place to live.
Let’s look at the past activities here. Rates have been increased for improvements such as seal coating the pavement, replaced sewer lines, and trees have been trimmed, but these things were requested for quite a while. before they were actually done.
Policies are enforced selectively. I have been able to work with management and keep within policies, but many are clearly in violation without correction. Some homes have broken down fences that are to be repaired by the park, the clubhouse has been shut down for years and used only for storage, and the common grass area has only recently been made green again.
The wood structure that covers a common «patio» area looks like it is about to fall down, and laundry areas are straight out of the 50s, with outdated facilities but new machines. There are no amenities here such as pool or playground, nor is there adequate parking.
Parking spaces in front of homes are sometimes not present, and in some cases confusing. Some are big and some are small, and some are on humps too big for some cars to park on. There is not adequate guest parking, and fire lanes are not kept clear. Parking is taken up by just a single resident with two spaces that have 6 or 7 cars parked there at a time (more for parties). This does not cause a problem for me, but others complain and there has been no resolution.
There have been some catastrophes as well. I know of two spaces where tenants have been evicted in the past, as well as some arrests. One person was shot and killed (see news for Holgate), and the clubhouse nearly burned down just a couple weeks ago.
Even with all these issues, it is still alright, rent is fairly low and controlled. Depending on which space you buy, if it has not changed hands much, you could end up paying less than $ 200 a month space rent. Some are much higher, but because of several sales of the home. Mine is VERY affordable, and this is the reason I have not moved from here for several years since I do not owe anything for mine and rent with utilities is less than $ 500 per month.
If you can pick up a home for low price, it is okay to live here. Street parking is not very far from any home, and there is not a high incidence of crime, as everyone that can watch for outsiders pays attention to them. I have even called the PD a few times for visitors and door-​to-​door sellers that do not belong here.
I hope the new managers turn out to be decent, as we just got new ones. So far, experience has been okay, but will post more if things change.
