A 62-space mobile home park in Coldwater, MI. The park runs its own regulated water system, so it — not a city utility — supplies and is accountable for the water at each lot. The nearest everyday shopping is a few miles out.
This isn't a flood-zone property — FEMA's map has it in zone X, outside the special hazard area. The surrounding town is well wired: about 100% of homes can reach 100/20 Mbps, much of it fiber. At 62 spaces, this mobile home park is a fair-sized operation to run water and rent billing across.

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.

Worth knowing
This park runs its own regulated public water system (EPA id MI0040074), drawing from its own groundwater well. The system reports serving about 87 residents through 62 service connections.
Coldwater is a rural community about 35 miles southeast of Kalamazoo (about 76,000 people). 9 other registered parks lie within about 10 miles.
For residents
- Water billing: Michigan requires a park to measure water use accurately and consistently before it can bill for it separately — billing for water without metering is an unfair practice — and suspected water-tariff violations get referred to the Public Service Commission (MCL 125.2328). Check the math free with the water submeter calculator.
- Paying rent: ask the park office how they take payment. Parks that run on Lot Sidekick hand residents clear, itemized rent and water bills.

415 West Chicago Road, Coldwater, Michigan 49036, in Branch County.
How much is lot rent at Avra Estates?
Avra Estates doesn't publish its lot rent anywhere we could find, and we won't guess at a figure. Call the park office to ask. For scale: HUD's FY 2026 fair market rent for a 2-bedroom rental around Branch County is $973/mo — that's apartment-style rent for the area, and lot rent (the ground under a home you own) usually runs well below it. If you run this park, you can add your real lot rent to this page for free.
How much can lot rent go up at Avra Estates?
Michigan has no mobile-home-specific rent law — no cap on the amount, and no dedicated notice period. A lot-rent increase is treated like any change to a month-to-month tenancy under Michigan's general statute (MCL 554.134), so check what your own lease requires.
Where does the water at Avra Estates come from?
Avra Estates operates its own public water system, registered with the EPA as MI0040074. That means the park — not a city utility — supplies and is accountable for the water at each lot. You can look up its monitoring and compliance record by that id in the EPA's Safe Drinking Water Information System.
