Trailer trash (or Trailer park trash) is a derogatory U.S. English term for people who live in trailers or mobile homes, especially in trailer parks.
Because trailers provide housing at a lower cost than conventional foundation-built houses, and in past decades trailers had few amenities, there is a popular cultural conception that those who live in trailer parks are usually only those who are too poor to afford anything else.
Although trailer parks have a high density compared to other rural or suburban housing, they are usually created on large tracts of undeveloped land in rural or suburban areas.
