The following story comes from the Dallas/Ft Worth area.
What would need to happen in your view to make our economy healthy?Portable housing has been an important part of the growth of this country from the beginning.
From tee-pees to Conestoga wagons, and more recently the mobile homes that were used to escape the cities in the 60's. RVs/travel trailers are a great temporary option, but none of the above are a solution for our housing crisis.
A healthy economy would do it though.
But that is acceptable . This topic could bring out many reasons as to why the rent and housing market is out of wack to the working class and forcing people to find alternative ways of getting out of the elements. But as you know that is not acceptable exchanges here which can also generate opposing points of view.Paul, you’re baiting him …
Close to SF? I can remember when there was an RV Park right in SF, but that was many years ago. Early 1980's maybe when it closed down?I found a close by monthly RV park and moved into my RV
I guess I am not "people". I worked for the C&C of SF for 35 years.But people no longer stay in the same place and/or work for the the same company for 30 years or longer.
This helps the economy. The more mobile people are, the more employment options they have to choose from. Good for employers too, they can recruit from across the country for even short term gigs.Many people prefer the option to be able to take their mobile apartment to a new town and better job situation.
And an entirely different situation and climate than those in the story that I posted. True fulltimer families tend to follow the weather where the kids can spend time outdoors all year and they see and experience a stream of new adventures. I have never seen an RV that I could imagine living in with a wife and 8 kids in a north TX winter.but I was single and in an area with a year round temperate climate.
