Kacey Musgraves "The Trailer Song"
This week's Saturday Timewatch features one of the classic images of 20th century 'Murica, the trailer park. Generally regarded with suspicion by the authorities and those with money, they've always been pushed to the edge of town and this is one of the few that can now be found in central Houston. However, they remain quite common out in the Texas piney woods and across the Gulf plains. There are also many individual trailers to be found along the back roads on rural plots of land.
Note : There is no judgement here. We live in a trailer in England where they are rather grandly known as 'park homes'. In the 21st century, they are actually a rather good solution to finding relatively low-cost housing, usually in rural areas.
