Just your car if you tow. No big deal if your not going far. We own one and take short 4 day trips. No big issue.

It’s not like one takes a 3000 mile trip. Some Retires take small trips to nearby states or to the ocean. We prefer an RV to a hotel room especially with Covid at least your in your own home.

And many families are buying in to live full time. Some people get a piece of land in a war state and park the RV there. Cheap living.

Probably within ten miles of my rural house there are several that have been set up as homes in people’s back yards. I don’t know if they contain family, or renters, but they are obviously operated as permanent dwellings. Why? I’m a landlord and I get several calls each month from people who are former renters or who have gotten my number from a renter they work with. Homes have gotten so expensive people can’t buy them so they’re renting. I’m sure there are other reasons but the average home price in my area is $350k. Few people can afford the service on that loan.

My guess is a hefty percentage of the RV’s sold will end up as permanent dwellings. BTW, this is against the zoning codes. I’m waiting for the code enforcement people to crack down. It could happen on any day so they’re running a risk of fines at the minimum. The law also allows the county or city to assess taxes on however long they think the dwelling was there. These and penalties could end up in the thousands of dollars. As more and more people do this, it will raise this up as a problem. (I’m wondering about how they’re disposing of sewage, for example, as the ones I’ve seen obviously don’t go anywhere so they’re not driving off to an RV service area to dump it.)
