Mobile-Home Growth, Regulation, and Discrimination in Upstate New York.

Geisler, Charles C.; Mitsuda, Hisayoshi

Rural Sociology, v52 n4 p532-43 Win 1987

Data from 92 towns in northern New York were used to examine the influence of community social-class composition on both de facto and de jure discrimination against such housing. The positive influence of population growth on mobile-home occurrence was found to be conditioned by intercommunity class composition. (JHZ)
