Check FB marketplace and craigslist. Used and rundown RVs are a dime a dozen. They’re not built to last, they’re built to sell to boomers, get used twice, then get sold off by the kids once the owner dies.
I got one for a few grand and lived in it for a couple years.
If it wasn’t for my kid, I’ve thought about doing the same. Without having to pay rent, you’d recoup what you spend within a year. You just have to find a friend and hook up at their house, because space rental (whether KOA or park) will add up waaaaay too fast.
Who can afford a trailer these days? Those things are as expensive as houses used to be.
They drop in value when used, which a lot of upper middle class are probably offloading right now.
Also you can get financing on them, and while they aren’t cheap, you can buy them for a lot less than a home.
