Cubano Showcases Mobile Home in Miami for $800 a Month: "I Love Living Here"

The Cuban TikToker, Jorge (@jorge_drake1992), has sparked a wave of reactions after sharing a video where he showcased a mobile home in Miami, which he claims rents for $800 a month. Jorge, who expressed his desire to move from Houston to Florida in the video, explained that the high cost of rentals in Miami has led him to seek more affordable alternatives, like this mobile home.

"My people, my wife and I want to move to Florida, but the rent here in Miami is expensive," he commented at the beginning of the video. During the tour, he enthusiastically displayed the interior spaces: "This is a house... I love living here," highlighting the living room, kitchen, and bedroom, which he describes as cozy for a couple. "It's small, but it's cozy," he notes, pointing out the air conditioning and the included furniture in the compact home.

The rental of this mobile home has caused a stir on TikTok, where it has already accumulated over 17,000 likes and around 1,300 comments. Many users showed interest in learning more details about the home, while others questioned whether it is truly possible to rent something in Miami for that price. "I doubt it, I don't believe you at all, there's nothing in Miami for $800," commented one user, while another suggested, "The land to park it costs $800, okay," implying there could be additional costs for parking the mobile home.

Some compared the costs of living in other parts of the country: "Here in Texas, I pay $725 a month for a regular apartment, but this looks very nice and well-priced." Despite the doubts about the price, other followers viewed the option favorably: "This is better than many houses in Miami, and many people lived worse in Cuba," expressed one of them.

Among the hundreds of comments, various people mentioned pros and cons. One user assured, "Bro, forget the big house; in the end, you only go home to sleep for a few hours. Miami is Miami, but you should be where you feel best." Another added, "To live like this in Miami, I'd rather live in Texas in an apartment." Meanwhile, a follower highlighted, "If I were in the U.S., I wouldn't think twice, I'd rent one of these."

Regarding the doubts about the price, one person commented, "$800, not pesos." Additionally, a user shared their own experience: "I lived in one of these for 10 months when I arrived from Cuba. It’s super comfortable." Finally, someone else questioned if the price includes other expenses, asking, "How much does parking cost if I bring my mobile home?"

Jorge also mentioned that the area where the mobile homes are located features a lake and a park, making the option of moving to Florida more attractive to him.

The debate among followers has centered on whether this rental option is feasible in Miami and if the low monthly cost compensates for the potential limitations. While some users support the idea of renting a mobile home as a more economical way of life, others continue to raise doubts about additional costs and the living conditions in such a home.
