What is a HUD Code?

Starting in 1976, the Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Code established a stringent series of construction and safety standards that ensure that today’s manufactured homes are superior to “mobile homes,” the term used for factory-built homes produced prior to the introduction of the HUD Code. Today’s manufactured homes are dramatically different in appearance from the “mobile homes” of yesterday with estimates that more than 90 percent of today’s manufactured homes never move from their original site. Manufactured homes, like site built homes, are now available in a variety of designs, floor plans, and amenities. Today’s manufactured homes are indistinguishable from site built homes and are fully compatible with any neighborhood architectural style.
