A gaggle of 15 RVs, whether permanent or mobile, is going to draw immediate scrutiny. If the park is comprised of people whose rigs never move and they are paying rents in the $200s and $300s, you can bet the local police will have the place on speed dial.
One thing we always need to remember is that the 'RV owner' covers a vast range of people with vastly different needs and desires.
Most of what we talk about on this fourm are RV parks for recreation. Either destination or traveling parks. Some discussion about long-term parks for snowbirds and full-timers.
We are still pretty much mobile.
But there is a huge group of people with RVs who seldom, if ever, move their rigs. The RV is just a small, relatively cheap, place to live. Most would vastly prefer to have a S/B house, but it isn't in the budget at this time, nor is a 'better' RV park.
