A couple of years ago there was a mobile home park on the east coast that had a hundred or so plots that a developer wanted to buy. The developer was offering a million dollars or more for each plot but it was all or nothing. There was a lot of people that wanted to sell and there were many that said they didn't care about the money and wouldn't sell for any amount. The deal fell through and as far as I know the mobile home park is still there and it was on the coast.

You are exactly correct about the mobile home park in southeast Florida.
I was living in that area at the time. That park, just under 500 units, is called Briny Breezes (located just east of Boynton Beach) and it is old and kind of shabby. You can barely drive a car down what they call a street.
BUT . . . it was right on the ocean! And yes, it was no big surprise that they couldn't get all the residents to agree, even for a million dollars!
