In the USA, some "trailer parks" or "mobile home parks" are stand-alone, while 
others are surrounded by conventional buildings.  Both of these terms refer to 
areas containing relatively large structures that have to be towed by large 
trucks, and often never move again once they are in place.  Areas for smaller 
camping trailers of a size to be towed by an automobile or pickup truck, or for 
self-propelled recreational vehicles are generally termed "campgrounds" or "RV 
parks", and the expectation is that someone will stay only short-term before 
moving on, trailer and all.
