Big City RVing

Is anyone else interested primarily in visiting cities? I bought my RV (2 days ago!) so I could spend time in Las Vegas, San Diego, San Francisco, Austin, New Orleans, New York City, Chicago, and other cities. I thought about renting apartments in each for 6 months, but moving sounded like such a hassle.

If anyone knows of any blogs focused on city RVing, I'd like to check them out. All the blogs I've looked into so far are primarily about state parks and boon-docking.

Thanks,
Carey

    The only one on that list is Las Vegas, for me. LV works pretty good.

    To be honest, if I wanted to visit cities I wouldn't drive my RV into that city. In other words, park your RV or stay at a park outside of the city and visit with your tow vehicle or towed vehicle. We've visited large cities, but only if staying outside the city.

    You probably would have done better with an extended stay hotel. Almost like renting without the hassle or 6-month commitment. Could move all you belongings in a single vehicle and over all cost would have been about the same. Plus you would have been able to stay closer to the things you wanted to see.

    Problem with big cities are places to park your RV long term aren't convenient or are expensive.
