Baby boomers are those born between the years 1946 and 1964, and many are now beginning to settle down from their careers. Clearly, it doesn’t mean that they are going to go quietly into retirement: the number of RV owners aged 55 and above saw a 20% increase to 3.6 million from 2005 through 2011, a figure that has only risen in the following years. The numbers indicate that baby boomers are on the move, and that they are living in mobile homes while they’re at it. The attraction of living life on the road is a multifaceted one. Contrary to popular myth, RV owners are usually active parts of mobile park communities in places where they stop over, providing each other with information, assistance, and a deep sense of camaraderie. For those in their later years, this becomes a meaningful way of cultivating social connections and remaining active during their newly-freed time.

If you’re looking for a cheaper housing option, a well-maintained used RV for sale offers excellent value for your money. Short for “recreational vehicles”, RVs were originally designed to serve as people’s homes on the road during trips, but more and more owners are choosing to make these vehicles their full-time residences since these cost much less than standard, single-detached houses. In many cases, buying an RV is more practical than getting an apartment since you actually own your home instead of just renting it. Of course, you do have to pay rent at the RV park where you’ll stay, but rates usually hover around the $500 range—considerably cheaper than the projected figure in the excerpt above. Luckily, Sandy has many outstanding RV parks and resorts to choose from that are close both to town and to the prime outdoors spots.
