I live in a senior mobile home park and recently unknown to residents a couple who are both under age 55 have moved here to live as permanent residents. They have been on a waiting list for 2 years to buy a mobile home for seasonal visiting. I think the law does not allow for this but they are now here so what do we do?

Hmmmmm....have no idea why you posted under this heading, but maybe you're hoping they won't sue you for snooping into their affairs and private info?


Maybe they just look young.....like they moved from Hollywood.

Although you state that it is a "senior" park, who established this. Is it just a selling point the owners advertise or is there some sort of contract stating the fact. Senior is a very vague term and without a clarification of the term it is open to debate. AARP has a commercial on television about something which they start with "if your 55 or over". What is a senior?

AND like in most other situations.....is somebody holding you hostage? you have the option to move if you disagree with where you are at now.

You'll have to ignore the wise-cracks here. I'm sure what you are refering to is you live in a (senior residents only) home developement where there is an age requirement of at least 55 yrs. My parents live in a residential neighborhood that has similar guidlines. There are no laws that i'm aware of that would not allow them to reside there, only guidelines and regulations that are governed by your home owners association ( if you have one) or there is a management group. Which ever the case may be you will have to bring this to there attention.

Now original poster - you are being very, very unkind. How rude! I am soooooo very glad that my husband and I did not have neighbors like YOU.

We lived in a "retirement" park in Florida - and when we bought our double wide way back in 1990, we were 28 and 31 years young. The reason we got in? My inlaws owned an RV site on the opposite side of the "retirement" park (separated only by a hedge row), and we were "grandfathered in".

We had my son - 2 yrs old at the time, and now almost 18 - living with us also.

Our neighbors were WONDERFUL. Not nosey, not whining because of our age, we'd visit, have get togethers, they'd come on over just to say hello. The elderly residents 'adopted' my son as a grandchild (many didn't even SEE their own grandchildren) and were always asking about him - and some still do to this day even though we havent lived there in 6 years and moved across country.

It's pretty sad when you can't move somewhere just because there's an age limit. I would hate to think of not knowing some of the great elderly and retired folks my husband and I met all those years ago.

Why don't you just get to know the people who moved in, instead of causing trouble? And, if you still want to be trying to stop them, I feel sorry for you. Go talk to the property manager if you need to.
