ABSTRACT

Full-timing, living year-round in a recreational vehicle, is an egalitarian housing and lifestyle option for retirees: it can fit any age, income level or marital status. Full-timers enjoy outdoor activities and informality, tending to be relatively non-materialistic and, often, non-conformist. In most cases, they carry all of their possessions with them. Full-timing is unique in its ability to meet the needs of the retiree while providing a lifestyle that emphasizes ability, individuality and positiveness.
