Using mobile homes for workforce housing offers an affordable, high-quality alternative that helps meet the needs of California's hardworking individuals while addressing the ongoing housing crisis.

What Is Workforce Housing?

Workforce housing refers to affordable housing designed for individuals and families who work in industries but may not be able to afford traditional market-rate housing. This includes workers in sectors such as construction, healthcare, retail, and public services, people who contribute to the backbone of our Californian communities but struggle to find housing within their budget.

A challenge in workforce housing is the missing middle: the lack of medium-density, affordable housing options such as duplexes, triplexes, townhomes, and small apartment buildings. These housing types bridge the gap between single-family homes and high-rise apartments, providing attainable housing for middle-income workers close to their jobs.

Why Is It Hard to Provide Workforce Housing?

Providing workforce housing is challenging for several reasons. One major obstacle is the cost. The price of core materials and labor required for building homes is the same for both luxury housing and workforce housing. As a result, developers tend to focus on higher-priced homes where they can make larger profits, which leaves the workforce housing market underserved.

While subsidies and grants are not available for mobile home workforce housing, this creates an opportunity for creative funding approaches to support mobile home projects.

Using Mobile Homes for Workforce Housing

ModWest offers a solution to this problem by using mobile homes for workforce housing. These homes provide an affordable alternative to traditional site-built homes, without compromising on quality or comfort.

• Price. Mobile homes are cheaper than site-built homes. These units offer substantial savings while still delivering a safe and comfortable living space for workers.
• Speed. Mobile homes are built faster in a factory, which allows for quicker turnaround times. The permitting process for mobile homes is faster as well, and since the homes are inspected in the factory, they meet rigorous standards, reducing the cost and timeline of the project.
• High quality. The quality of mobile homes today is on par with, if not better than, traditional site-built homes. With advanced construction techniques and materials, mobile homes are durable, energy-efficient, and built to last.
