Australians turn to caravans to ease cost of living

According to Realestate.com.au and a Money.com.au survey, nearly one in ten Australians lived in a caravan in the past year. The trend now includes high-income professionals earning six-figure salaries, not just retirees or low-income earners. 13% of respondents cited necessity as the main reason. Experts attribute the rise to unaffordable traditional housing due to high rents and mortgage stress.
