What our residents are saying

"I came by Glen-Aire not knowing anything about mobile home living; thought I would drive in and look things over. I liked what I saw and met the manager. He showed me three units, two used and one new. I bought the used one and with the help of the manager was able to move in in less than a month. I have lived here 6 months now and feel very much at home."

Located just 90 miles from downtown Chicago, St. Joseph is a community of 8,800 people situated within the larger Benton Harbor/St. Joseph metro area of 162,000 people.
