Is it legal to live in your car in Florida?
Is this legal, and if not, what are the consequences? I'm in between rental places and I would honestly prefer to stay in my car while I figure out a new living situation.

In the Florida Keys, for example, overnight parking is illegal in most public places. In other parts of the state, it depends on local regulations.
For a list of all the rest stops that offer overnight parking in Florida, you can check the Florida Department of Transportation website. Many overnight parkers also swear by Walmart parking lots, where you are unlikely to be bothered.
Regardless of where you choose to park your car, it’s best not to stay in one place for more than one night when living temporarily in your vehicle.
