Because thats how people in the USA act, like ending up in a trailer park is the worst thing that could happen to them. They would rather pay $2,000 for a 1 bedroom apartment than $450 for a 3 bedroom trailer simply because they don't want to be thought of as "trailer trash". Its very stupid and irresponsible, but any time I bring it up to anyone irl, that I am not paying a million dollars for rent the way they are, which is why I can work part time and still afford more than them, they have 45,000 excuses and reasons why that couldn't possibly be true, even when I actively show them my rent receipts and paychecks.
