Any experienced RV enthousiasts who can help me out with this? Thanks!

How common is it to live year-round in a permanently parked RV-type thing? How's it work out? There's a spot in rural Ontario we drive by sometimes that has a decent-sized grouping of trailers. Not 'trailer park'-type trailers, but what're often referred to as Winnebagos. Some are rather wee. Given that it's by the water, we figured it was a seasonal thing. Nope. Still there in the snow, with signs of current occupation. Is that even particularly economical? It seems to me there'd be a lot of unique costs to living like that. The need, for one, to shop frequently while living in the sticks. (Nearest grocery store is +/- 1/2hr away.) I assume there're hook-ups for things there given the density in just the one area -- what sort of services would there be? It doesn't have the expected "Such-n-Such RV Park" sign or any details out front. Really odd to see a crammed-in mini-community like that. Given how easy it is to see from a not unused highway, I don't think they're there illegally. Any insights on how living there works out?
