    The combination of an aging U.S. population and the focus of Equity LifeStyle Properties on senior lifestyle manufactured home and RV communities continues to support high occupancy levels around 94% in the MH portfolio. This can support lot rent growth and support revenue and NOI over time. High resident ownership rates, with 97% of MH residents as homeowners and an average stay of 10 years, continue to reduce turnover and operating volatility.
