Which State to pick for residence
My wife and I are thinking of hitting the road in our MH soon and the question has come up of State Residence. We live in CA now and its a bit expensive, I know there are a number of items to consider...

State requirements for 'residency'........TX not a problem (or SD or FL) as those states are RV friendly and easy to become & maintain residency.
Some states are easy to establish residency but have limits/restrictions on maintaining residency......such as time out of state
Yes mail forwarding services can serve as your 'home address' BUT they have to be recognized by the state as a 'physical' address and also many institutes will not recognize some as a 'real' address. Insurance companies and such.
That is why most FT RVrs use SD, TX or FL as a 'domicile' state as the mail forwarding services have been proven to be legally recognized.
Then there is the issue of Obamacare.......depending our your medical needs/coverage requirements....coverage may only be provided within state, except for emergency care. SD & FL do not have multi-state coverage plans currently.
