A: Based on the information you provided, it seems you have been living at a campground in Indiana for about 2 years and have established residency there by receiving mail at that address. However, your specific rights as a long-term campground resident can vary depending on the particular campground's policies and any agreements you may have with the campground owners or management.

In general, here are a few key points to consider:

1. Landlord-tenant laws: Indiana's landlord-tenant laws may not fully apply to campground living situations, as these arrangements are often considered more temporary or recreational in nature.

2. Campground rules and policies: Each campground has its own set of rules and policies that residents must follow. These rules may cover aspects such as length of stay, site maintenance, and behavior expectations.

3. Written agreement: If you have a written agreement with the campground, such as a lease or a long-term rental agreement, this document will outline your specific rights and obligations as a resident.

4. Eviction: If the campground decides to evict you, they may not need to follow the same formal eviction process required for traditional rental properties. However, they should still provide you with reasonable notice and follow any established procedures outlined in your agreement or the campground's policies.

To better understand your rights, you should:

1. Review any written agreements you have with the campground.

2. Familiarize yourself with the campground's rules and policies.

3. If needed, consult with a local legal aid organization or attorney specializing in landlord-tenant law or property rights to discuss your specific situation and any applicable state or local laws.
