It's not a new story, an old mobile home park goes up for sale and residents face losing their homes.

We've heard this story a lot lately, as growth makes the land underneath these sites worth a lot of money. Last week the City of Boise bought the latest mobile home park in this situation, saying it is preserving affordable housing.
