Living in an RV instead of a home or apartment can sometimes seem cheaper and in some cases it may be cheaper to live in an RV but sometimes it costs just as much as an apartment to live in an RV especially if you stay at RV parks a lot.

I left my apartment and moved into an RV for 2 years and traveled around and turned out I was actually spending more money living in the tiny RV than I was in my nice larger apartment.

I was spending $900.00 per month just on RV lot rent and then another $100.00 for water and electricity so it turned out I was spending $1,000.00 per month just having my RV parked at an RV park and using the little electricity and water I was using.

I was only spending $700.00 per month on my apartment rent that included, water, sewer, internet, trash pickup, gas, and electricity.

So I sold the RV and moved back into an apartment instead but now I'm saving up to buy a home with a mortgage so I can have a nice home and yard.
