The LBI Trailer Park was a fixture on Long Beach Island for Decades. It was located in the Holgate/Inlet section and provided some of the most affordable housing on the island. Unfortunately the owners decided to not rebuild after Hurricane Sandy. 

The only remaining Park is Lindy’s, a much smaller park on the bay side.  The yearly rent at the time was about $7000 which was much less than the mortgage, insurance, taxes and flood insurance for almost any home on the island.
