A lot of people across the country that can't afford the high rent rates are turning to living in RVs permanently.

I suggest reading a book called "Nomadland: Surviving America in the Twenty-First Century" (hyperlink - click on words)

Or watching this video with the author (hyperlink - click on words)

There's a good book that just came out about this, discussing the good and bad of nomadic RV ultra-lean part-time jobs like camperforce: Nomadland, by Jess Bruder.

I just started reading Nomadland: Surviving America in the Twenty-First Century by Jessica Bruder

> "From the beet fields of North Dakota to the National Forest campgrounds of California to Amazon’s CamperForce program in Texas, employers have discovered a new, low-cost labor pool, made up largely of transient older Americans. Finding that social security comes up short, often underwater on mortgages, these invisible casualties of the Great Recession have taken to the road by the tens of thousands in late-model RVs, travel trailers, and vans, forming a growing community of nomads: migrant laborers who call themselves “workampers"."

On the same topic, I use this Kelty 50 bag, does double duty as computer and stuff bag or grocery carrying or backpacking, over the weekend or if configured can last a week out in the wilderness
