re: Could one hypothetically live at a Walmart Parking lot

There’s a homeless dude with a bunch of Jewish flags living on the sidewalk/fence of the Walmart parking lot on Tchoup. Dude has been set up there for at least the last 5 years.

I don’t see why not, they let campers park in their lots. There have also been cases where people were living inside 24 hour Walmarts.

I've been researching this. It's called urban stealth camping. I won't lie, part of me wants to sell my home and most of my possessions and bank about $650k. Then work for 7-10 years while living in my SUV and retire in 7-10 yrs.

Most get memberships to Planet Fitness for showers, eat main meal at lunch while at work, etc. I could definitely do it, but the wife will never go for it

Yep, there's Ytubers making serious bank detailing their boondocking and stealth camping in Walmart parking lots.

That’s seriously disturbing. Those kids don’t look well cared for at all.

I know an engineer who makes an impressive salary who does it for months on end. He will park his class A motorhome, which cost about what a modest home would cost, in the parking lot, unhitch the jeep and head off to work. Moves between Walmarts and Bass Pro Shops and Lowes type parking lo

wtf would be the point of this?

I went down an internet rabbit hole a while back and saw this too. At least in the past Walmarts would generally allow this. Walmart was a preferred location for thus type of camping because there was generally security patrols that would ensure the campers weren't harassed during the night, the store itself was convenient for restocking supplies, and because a lot of these were 24 hours they had access to bathroom facilities as needed.
