San Jose mobile home park residents are fighting back against their landlord, Monte Christo Communities, accusing them of retaliating for forming a tenant association. Residents report being pressured to sign new leases, harassed with frequent seven-day notices—even for feeding stray cats—and having their privacy invaded through unauthorized property photos. Since the company bought the park in 2019, leaders like Maria Munoz have faced escalating threats, while longtime resident Alma Bailon suffers severe emotional distress after receiving eviction notices over her carport. Some tenants were forced into steep rent hikes that bypassed local rent control, with one woman evicted after her rent jumped from $700 to over $1,200. These homes are often the last affordable option in San Jose, and residents fear being priced out. Local officials say they’re monitoring the situation and support the right to organize without fear—but for now, peace feels impossible under current management.
