    You still can! You just gotta really lower your standards for what a “house” is

      Yup. I’m down with a toy hauler rv (If I decay much more I’ll need a ramp) and my favorite apartment was 500 square feet. I found a decent plot of undeveloped land near where I want to retire. An rv could get us started, and we can use our camping gear for an extra “indoors” room.

        Can you legally live in an RV there? i have some vacant rural land, but the county laws dont allow camping or RVs. They also ban structures until you build a dwelling of at least a certain size.

        Not even allowed to be poor on your own land

          it’s out in farm country. If they outlawed RVs, they’d be fucking over their labor force (at least where I am, half the folk in the migrant camp are in RVs, half are in modular homes).

          that doesn’t mean i wouldn’t put it past them, but they grow better food there than we do here, and it’s just a couple hundred miles.
