Michigan led on safe water after Flint, but mobile home parks are stubborn rough spot

Michigan stepped up big time on water safety after the Flint disaster, setting new standards and cracking down on contamination. But here’s the catch: mobile home parks are still lagging behind, with many residents stuck dealing with unsafe water. It’s a frustrating gap in an otherwise solid comeback story.
Editor’s Note: Flint was a wake-up call for Michigan, and the state made real progress—just not everywhere. Mobile home parks, often housing lower-income families, are getting left out. This isn’t just about pipes and policies; it’s about who gets left behind when systems improve. If safe water isn’t universal, is the fix really working?
