If you have a lease, then you cannot be evicted without cause. However, if you have no lease but pay your rent on a monthly basis, you have a periodic tenancy (more commonly referred to has a month-to-month tenancy). Accordingly you can be asked to vacate the premises via a 30-day notice for any reason or no reason at all.
