Mobile home parks—or manufactured housing communities—provide land for homeowners to rent space in the park for their mobile home. Mobile home parks serve a critical role in providing attainable housing in Aurora. Aurora is home to 11 mobile home parks housing more than 2,400 units.
Manufactured homes are located in designated zone districts. In the final draft version of the newly updated Unified Development Ordinance (Zoning Code), the zone district is R-MH (Manufactured Home Park District), which accommodates residential communities designed for manufactured home dwelling units, pre-1976 mobile homes, co-housing and cottage housing dwelling developments. This zoning code update will be brought before the City Council later this year for approval.
