Cal. Civ. Code § 16-41-27-4
Mobile home
Operative Text
Sec. 4. As used in this chapter, "mobile home" has the meaning set forth in IC 9-13-2-103.2. The term includes a manufactured home (as defined in IC 9-13-2-96(a)).
Indiana Code § 16-41-27-4 establishes the legal definition of 'mobile home' as it applies throughout the health and safety chapter governing mobile home communities. The term carries the meaning given in IC 9-13-2-103.2 and is explicitly extended to include manufactured homes as defined in IC 9-13-2-96(a), ensuring both types of dwellings fall under the same regulatory framework. This definitional provision shapes how all other requirements in Ind. Code § 16-41-27 are interpreted and applied.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Operators of mobile home communities in Indiana should be aware that § 16-41-27-4 defines the scope of which dwelling types are covered by this chapter's health and safety requirements. Because the definition expressly includes manufactured homes alongside traditional mobile homes, compliant operators generally apply the chapter's standards uniformly to both types of units on their property. Understanding this definitional foundation helps ensure that no covered dwelling type is inadvertently excluded from required community-wide practices.

If you live in a mobile home or a manufactured home within an Indiana community, § 16-41-27-4 confirms that your dwelling falls within the protections and standards established by Ind. Code § 16-41-27. Knowing that the chapter's definition covers both mobile homes and manufactured homes can be relevant if a question arises about whether a particular rule or protection applies to your residence. Tenants who believe their rights under this chapter are not being honored may wish to contact a local tenant-rights organization or the appropriate Indiana state agency for guidance.
