Scientology staff most often lived in communal housing. The neighbourhood around the USGO (and the LA Org and AOLA [Advanced Org Los Angeles]) was in decline, and houses were inexpensive to rent. These houses became communal-type houses where most of the rooms were rented cheaply by staff members. The Bonnie Brea "Thetan Manor" was one such place; Charles Manson apparently had a connection to that communal house.

Although the Church of Scientology claims that Snow White was the result of government infiltrators setting the Church up for a fall, and that the Guardian's Office was disbanded, a 1994 document leaked to the Internet revealed that Operation Snow White was still in existence, run by Elaine Siegel of the Office of Special Affairs (the GO's successor).
