I live in Florida where the sun really is hard on things like RVs. I stored for a while at a place that had carport type storage to keep it outta the sun. My HOA is the same but my DW found a place that was more like a garage with a drive in door and drive out door and we can store other things in it. I love it except every month when I have to make the payment. Get what you can afford but if I were you I'd try to keep it outta the elements and in a secured compound. Good luck.
