Anyone know anything about mobile homes?

Im seriously considering a move to Silicon Valley/San Francisco to grow my career (living in So Florida has not helped my career at all) and my biggest concern living in Northern California is price; rents are insane. I looked at a few apartments and $1,500/month will barely get you a p.o.s apartment. The same as living in NYC. I have a lot of anxiety over the high cost of living and it's hard for me to do this.

So for laughs I was looking at real estate prices in Sunnyvale, CA (the area I want to live in) and to my surprise there's a mobile home park

I think this is really nice to live in http://www.realtor.com/realestateand...9_M22238-51221
A 3 bedroom for $130k? in Silicon Valley?

I dont understand why they're so cheap? I would be living in Silicon Valley and paying like $300-400 a month for a mortgage. Something doesn't sound right here. That's like living in a 3 bedroom in NYC for $400/month.

Why are they so cheap? Do they not come with water, or were they built over a cemetery or something?
I never looked at mobile homes before so I know nothing about them.
