RV?
According to the latest data from the Census, as of 2023, about 342,000 people in the United States live full-time in an RV, boat or van. That is up 41 percent from 2019. A big driver is the cost of living and housing shortages, and according to data from the RV Industry Association, about a third of those residents have children. The majority of these residents also earn less than $75,000 per year. It’s a bigger story than a mere #vanlife trend for young professionals and remote knowledge economy workers, or just retirees living in an RV. With affordable housing shortages in the cities where the jobs are, living in an RV can be the best option for lots of lower-income Americans.
