If I were to buy a cheap plot of land in NM temporarily to throw a 5th wheel on, are they compatible with regular sewage hookups, or is that hard to do?
In my opinion, the words "cheap plot of land" and "sewer hookups" are incompatible. Any land developed to the point where it has sewer hookups isn't going to be cheap- even in New Mexico.
Undeveloped land is of course much cheaper- everywhere. Public rules governing what one can do on such land vary so widely from place to place that the only real way to find out in a specific case is to inquire locally.
Be warned that "five-ten acre plots" one sees advertised are often part of a big chunk someone's subdivided. Those are the most likely types of land purchases to have recorded deed restrictions. Such restrictions are often more onerous even than local ordinances, so do your homework if considering any such purchase.
