A 54-space mobile home park in Cross City, FL. The park runs its own regulated water system, so it — not a city utility — supplies and is accountable for the water at each lot. Everyday shopping is within a couple of miles.

Distances are straight-line, so the drive is longer. Internet and neighborhood figures describe the surrounding town — and the rent benchmark, wildfire rank, and tornado count the wider county — not this park’s own lots. The fair market rent is apartment-style rent (HUD’s area benchmark), not this park’s lot rent. Rent limits are not legal advice.

For residents
- Water billing: if your park submeters water, Florida bills it at the cost of service with the combined service charge capped at 9% (§367.022(9)) — there's no markup on the water itself. Check the math free with the water submeter calculator, or read the Florida water-billing guide.
- Paying rent: ask the park office how they take payment. Parks that run on Lot Sidekick hand residents clear, itemized rent and water bills.
