I have to defend RV camp prices, because by ACTUAL EXPERIENCE I have found, when an RV pulls in and connects, ALL the air conditioners are started, the hot water heater and 300 watt refrigerator get switched on.
I would agree this is what many do along the coast. But we rarely find an RV park that has true 30 amp and almost never 50 amp so we know there are limitations. Some parks do have 30 amp plugs and maybe even 30 amp breakers. But then they may not have heavy enough wire to carry to needed power to all the RVs or they do not have large enough main breakers to carry the load for more than a few RVs at a time. I have literally seen main panels go up in flames twice due to inadequate wiring. A big breaker with under-rated wire will do it every time. So we are careful.
Higher elevation parks do not have the high heat and humidity challenge. 2,000 ft altitude makes all the difference in the world.
We also spend most of our time in the central highlands where it is definitely cooler most of the time - we can get by with just a fan a lot of the time. We rarely run AC but we do have a fridge.
CFE told me it is prohibited to sub-meter a service drop with meter.
We have been in at least two parks with meters where they charge for the KW you use while there. I know at least one of them brought the meters down from the states - not sure about the other. I forget what the rate was but our records show we paid $200MX for a week. This was a few years ago.
Various different parks have different things to offer - amenities. If they have lots of stuff like concrete slabs and grass and flowers and swimming pool and TV lounge or stuff like that they can charge more and those who desire can go there and pay more. But if they offer a basic place to park and not much more then they need to charge accordingly for that.
