Manufactured Housing Survey (MHS) Glossary

The glossary below may define terms not included in the main Glossary on census.gov.

Additional Notes

Average sales prices of new manufactured homes shown in the tables are reported by dealers who are instructed to include dealer set-up costs. In some cases, there may be additional costs to prepare units for occupancy not included in the sales prices reported.

Beginning in 1980, the average sales prices are computed from data for manufactured homes sold at or before the time they are placed on a site. Prices (values) of manufactured homes leased or sold after placement are not collected. The average sales price computation for manufactured homes placed prior to 1980 included not only the sales price of those sold, but also the intended sales price of those for sale and the value of leased manufactured homes.
