This weekend, the annual meeting of the Association of Manufactured Homeowners in Ellensburg highlighted a pressing issue affecting seniors across the state: economic eviction due to skyrocketing rent increases in manufactured home parks. Attendees discussed the alarming trend of rent hikes, with some parks experiencing increases of up to 100%. Currently, there are no measures in place to stabilize these rents, leaving many seniors vulnerable to displacement. The discussions underscored the urgent need for policy interventions to protect this demographic from the financial pressures of rising housing costs.
