Trailer parks, aka campgrounds are crazy expensive compared to "free", and some people are just living in cars.

Trailer parks are also rare, in the downtown of large cities. Also, don't confuse trailer parks with mobile home parks. RVs aren't allowed in mobile home parks.

Mobile homes in the downtown of large cities? Easy, just build one of these...

Trailer park is just the older term for mobile home park. I believe the term you were looking for is RV park.

I think there might be a bit of colloquialism here.
