@Carini Rochester good points, especially the fire protection one.On the 2 to 3x greater price for tiny houses than frame construction, is that for a pre-manufactured home built offsite and brought in or a tiny home built on-site?

“Manufactured”?

We not only have good professional jobs -- IT, Pharmeceutical, etc, but also a vast variety of blue collar workers in manufacturing and distribution.4. 

@John Fedro,I have a long history of owing manufactured homes for the purpose of rental investment.I see 3 major problems with your presentation.Age of the home.

It seems like desirable land is hard to come by so I've been looking at tear-down houses or manufactured homes that can be removed. 

Largest employers in Austin by an order of magnitude are state/local government, UT, local school districts and a couple of semi-conductor/high-tech manufacturing facilities. 

Population growth.Doing some Google searches and reading a few articles these are the locations I have found to be of interest to me:NC; Research Triangle (population growth; big businesses are moving in)AZ; Phoenix, Mesa (huge migration from CA; EV manufacturers are moving in) TN, Nashville (strong population growth; tech gains moving in)CO, Colorado Springs (strong job growth, beautiful outdoors)NV; Las Vegas (high-speed rail from Los Angeles to Las Vegas scheduled for completion in 2027; people are moving in from CA)TX; Dallas, Houston (Dallas to Houston high-speed rail scheduled for competition in 2026; huge population growth, a number of infrastructure improvement projects)FL; West Palm Beach, Tampa, Orlando (population growth; huge hospitality and truism industry) I tried to keep it as concise as possible but it still turned out to be quite a read.

Just last week I read in the news a huge manufacturing plant will be built not far from me in about a year and now I wonder if I should step up my time line.Also thinking of changing focus to single family homes. 

Hello, I have a question about a clean, kept up un gated neighborhood dominated with park mobile homes or manufactured homes with a few houses with foundations.

@Donald Torrence You may want to check with your local manufactured housing association.
