You can temporarily live in an RV if you have an active building permit with Taos County for up to 6 months while you are building a house. There is a possibility that you can get an additional 6-month allowance to live in it as long as you can show our building department that you are making progress on your building permit. If you want to come out for the weekend, again, there is probably no issue, but if you want to install an electrical hookup, then you will need an address for the utility, and Taos County will not provide an address for an RV. To get an approved septic system from the New Mexico Environment Department, as traditional septic requires a minimum of of an acre. There are other options such as closed vault, but apparently, those need to be pumped far more often. Many people will buy adjacent .25-acre parcels and consolidate them.
