~6 months (in an RV, not a more hospitable mobile home). I’ve had worse apartments. Not through winter, though. Millions of people have more experience than me (I’m sure) but a couple days is a pretty low bar.

I’d definitely say it wasn’t ideal, the waste situation was certainly not great without a septic tank hook-up! But it is a something that can be iterated on. NIMBYs, on the other hand, there just isn’t any traction there at all.

I'm sure there's an order of magnitude difference between living in an RV for a few days _knowing_ it's temporary (or at least hoping it is), vs living in one knowing it's permanent. You make completely different choices and take on a different mentality.

It's like all the UBI tests. It's not meaningful if the participants know the UBI will stop after a certain period.
