The top 10 places for RV camping in the U.S.
Recently asked about the effects of the pandemic on recreational vehicle habits, Chris Emery, the editor of Ordealist.com, replied: “The biggest change with the pandemic is that more people still in the workforce are traveling in RVs.”
Emery continued, “That’s because the shift to remote work, which was hyper-accelerated by the pandemic, has created many opportunities for people to work from anywhere. For many people working in information jobs, all they need is a good Wi-Fi connection and a laptop to do their jobs. So, you’re seeing many more people traveling in RVs as a lifestyle – something that used to be reserved for retirees only.”
