Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Florida

I live in a mobile home park and all of the mobile homes in the park are exactly the same. I have recently gotten to know my neighbors a little better and found out that I am paying $175 more per month than everyone else. These rentals are not a part of any type of rental assistance or income based housing program. What I want to know is if it is legal for a landlord to charge such a difference in rent for the same homes? I want to speak with my landlord about it but I need to know if I have any legal basis to argue. I would really appreciate some help with this, someone please tell me if there is anything I can do about this. I feel that I am being ripped off.

There is no requirement that a landlord lease identical trailers or apartment units for the same amount.
