A Park Model is a structure on a chassis where each piece can not exceed 400 square feet excluding the loft, which can not exceed 60? in height. They can fit in R/V parks and be moved like typical manufactured homes.

A Park Model is 14? or narrower and 40? or shorter and is not built to either HUD building code or any site building code like UBC or BOAC or CABO or any other site building code. They are constructed to whatever codes the motor vehicle department for the state where they are constructed will require.
