A 126-space 55+ manufactured-home community in Salem, OR. 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.
With 126 spaces set aside for residents 55 and older and none reported vacant, turnover here looks slow rather than fast. Working from home is realistic nearby — roughly 100% of homes report broadband at 100/20 Mbps or better, gigabit reaching a real share of homes. Zone X on FEMA's map keeps this park outside the special flood hazard area, for whatever that's worth against a map that gets redrawn.

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 bills water by submeter, Oregon caps the usage rate at your utility's rate (ORS 90.572), and your bill should show both meter reads and that rate. Check the math free with the water submeter calculator, or read the Oregon 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.

How much is lot rent at Meadowlark Estates?
Meadowlark 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 Marion County is $1,560/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 Meadowlark Estates?
Because this park has more than 30 spaces, Oregon's HB 3054 caps lot-rent increases here at 6% for 2026, with 90 days' written notice (ORS 90.600). The cap resets every January.
Where does the water at Meadowlark Estates come from?
