SOUTH Park character Eric Cartman currently lives in a Coney Island hotdog stand with his mom Liane Cartman.

Why does Cartman live in a hotdog stand?
Cartman’s mom takes a job with South Park Realtors, as rents start to rise.
Her career move attracts Cartman to also join the real estate business and he starts his own company called South Park Realty Group.
To attract business, he creates a video showcasing a number of properties.
In response, the South Park Realtors make their own video ad of the Coney Island Hotdog.
Liane then quits her job and sells their home and they go and move into the hotdog stand.
The Coney Island Hotdog is an abandoned stand on a dirty patch of land, with parking lots marked just outside.
The property is shaped like a hotdog bun flanked by a model of a hotdog itself with toppings.
