    When trailer parks were new to the world (The '50s and '60s.) they might have actually been trying to fool people.
    And even now that people recognise trailer parks for the decidedly non-luxurious places they usually are, the names still stuck.

    Or maybe trailer park owners just have great appreciation for iriony.

    I suspect for the same reason any suburb or development is given a corny name: marketing.

    Pleasantville? it was a dump

    the irony is lost on me~ the names sound high flaunting

    but most are not that grand

    In England I heard they did have some Manufactured Homes

    or Mobile Homes~ Trailers? and they were over $125,000

    bucks~~ I guess they were well built?
