Tax evasion is illegal. Tax avoidance is not just legal but encouraged. We own a house and rent it out in California so we DO pay income taxes on that... Now that our HOME is on wheels and we live wherever we are parked for the night we can be from wherever we want to be from. We legally avoid taxes by having a 'domicile' in South Dakota as well as drivers licenses, registrations, and we vote in South Dakota (a state with no income tax).
There is no state income tax on our pensions in South Dakota.
If we ever decide to make our house our home again we will make California our residence again and pay income taxes there again and pay the ridiculously high registration prices on our vehicles.
Remember AVOIDANCE not EVASION!

Exactly! We do the same, except with have property in south TX, which is a vacation property...we are careful to not stay there longer than TX residency requirements allow...it is our winter getaway! Again, avoidance NOT evasion...
