I don't really believe that as in many places you're starting to see multi-level facilities with as many as 5-6 layers of units. That ain't cinderblocks.

I have seen those only heading into cities near the outskirts. I also didn't get why they weren't apartments.

In California at least, prop 13 lets them operate without having to worry about rising property taxes in areas where otherwise there could (and probably should) be housing.
