I live in a trailer park and have no plans to move, trolls say it’s no good & that it’s ‘crack city’ but I love it
A WOMAN has clapped back at nasty trolls who claim she is living in ‘crack city’ all because her home is located on a trailer park.
Tay Brice, took to social media to show off her trailer home as she revealed some of the harsh comments she had received.
She said: “The parent of one of my daughter’s friends found out where we lived this week and asked her how it felt to live in Crack City aka the trailer park.
“And then I got this comment on one of my other videos and I thought let’s make a video because it feels pretty damn good to live in the trailer park.”
The other comment left on her TikTok account was stunned by just how massive Tay’s trailer was.
It read: “Hold on. Why is this the biggest bathroom ever. With the TV and everything.”
In the video, she showed off her trailer park home which featured a gorgeous wooden porch leading to a massive front room with a log fireplace.
To the left was yet another spacious TV room leading to the kitchen and dining room.
Going through the front room to the back was a massive master bedroom which led to an even bigger ensuite bathroom with a stand alone bath, waterfall shower, dressing room and even a TV for the most relaxing space.
Despite Tay loving how she has made her trailer her dream home, people were still unimpressed with the location.
One troll commented: “Unfortunately a trailer park is still a trailer park.
“No matter how nice it is, it’s supposed to be a stepping stone to a house.”
But the mum wasn’t going to listen to what bullies online said, writing: “Romanticising my life because its the only one I get.”
The videos posted to her TikTok account @taybrice have since gone viral with over 8 million views.
People were quick to take to the comments in awe of her home and told her not to listen to the haters.
One person wrote: “I’ve never seen a trailer park before, I had no idea they’re that big! It’s a full bungalow!!”
Another commented: “Wow you made this trail home a HOME!! IT’S STUNNING. People are so judgemental good job!! The house is beautiful I can see all the love.”
“You have a beautiful home… nicer than my flat. Nothing to be ashamed of I’d love to live in one,” penned a third.
Why I could never live in a tiny home
Tiny homes are getting increasingly popular in the UK, especially in the cost of living crisis when first-time buyers are struggling to get on the property ladder or current homeowners are having to pay ridiculous interest rates on mortgages.
But Rebecca Miller, Fabulous’ Associate Editor, has shared why living in a tiny home would be her idea of a nightmare.
“I’m currently in the process of selling my flat and buying a house, and as I pack up all my belongings, I’m worried where it is all going to go – there is so much stuff!
Fortunately, I’m very privileged to be buying a house with more square feet than my current flat.
But it got me wondering, could I ever live in a small space? And the answer is no.
- Less personal space
Living with another person immediately cuts down on personal space, but remove several rooms, and I’d be left with only the bathroom as my sanctuary. I’m not sure I’d be able to cope!
- Less storage space
I’m like a magpie, I like collecting pretty things, and I like my belongings to be organised. With limited storage space, I’d find it really hard to keep everything neat and tidy.
- Can’t play host
One of the joys of being an independent adult is being able to host – friends, family, overnight stays, and dinner parties. Where would I gather everyone for a Sunday lunch if my table only sat two? Not to mention, how would I cook a Sunday lunch?
- No room to grow
Both as an individual, as part of a couple and also my hobbies, can be restricted by physical space. When I first moved into my flat, I was overjoyed at having my own balcony, and it has been a space where my love for gardening has grown. Five years on, my balcony is now overflowing with plants, and I’ve had to set up a mini propagator in the living room!
Meanwhile a fourth said: “Your trailer is bigger than my house! Some people need to learn bigger isn’t always better. You’re doing the most with what you have! And it looks amazing.”
“That’s so mean.. You’ve done a wonderful job with your home,” claimed a fifth.
Someone else added: “You have a beautiful home. Wow.”
