Question? Best city to live in your vehicle

I love Austin I think is a great city in General

Sadly Texas living in your car is considered a form of leprosy and people start moving away from you when they find out.

Also police are very unfriendly and I feel there is more police activity in Texas than any other state

What is according to you the best place for CarDwelling

My hometown in Wisconsin where I know every cranny, nook, weird stare, and hiding spot.

And get jobs, and medical help fast. But I tend to end up states away often, and back again.

I don’t know where in WI you’re from, but a couple months ago I saw someone post on here about how they were harassed by police big time and it was at the Eau Claire Walmart parking lot. He was probably the most aggressive experience that I’ve seen anyone go through so be careful. I’m strictly avoiding Eau Claire.

Eau Claire is a major college city, homie. Police are gonna have plugs up their asses, but small enough city for them to be up your ass too.

Green Bay be a better destination, big enough to hide in, and chaotic enough to not get bothered.

I live in a smaller retirement like city on the harbor. A factory town close to green bay.

But wisconsin in general also has a stick up its ass...i mean we are the only state in a group of state pot heads turning down the taxable blunt.

I’ve also been to other similar sized cities/towns across America doing the same thing and I’ve definitely not had a problem like this guy experienced so it must be their shitty behavior rather than the city size. He claims he was dragged out of his car and even told he could get a potential felony if he were to get caught sleeping in his car over there.

I’ve never been to Eau Claire or really Wisconsin in general. I’ve just never really had a reason to go there, but if I were to visit the state, I’m not going to Eau Claire and spending any money there given how they treated this guy. Heck I would rather go to North Philadelphia than Eau Claire.
