In the new episode of “Gimme Shelter,' CalMatters Housing Reporter Manuela Tobias shares her findings from a five-month investigation on California’s mobile home parks, the last stop in housing affordability for the state’s most vulnerable residents.

. She found parks could go up to 20 years without a full inspection under state law, and even when state workers discovered problems, limited enforcement could allow serious health and safety problems to fester.

Her story takes readers behind the scenes of Stockton Park Village, a park abandoned by its owners in 2020 and left its residents to endure years of squalor, including multiple septic system failures. In the latest episode of Gimme Shelter, Manuela shares what she learned in her reporting with co-host Liam Dillon, housing reporter for The Los Angeles Times. Listeners this week will hear not only Manuela and Liam unpack substandard housing issues across the state — but the voices of the people most affected by the problem and officials seeking solutions.

The guiding question for this installment of the podcast: How is the state doing as it tries to strike the balance between keeping this crucial source of affordable housing open, while also making sure the conditions at the park are livable?Which housing issues would you like to hear more about on the podcast?There is a mistake in the form! {{#verifyErrors}}{{message}}{{/verifyErrors}}{{#confirmation}} {{{confirmation}}} {{/confirmation}} {{^confirmation}} Form successfully submitted.
