Quartzsite Critics vs Advocates WHO's RIGHT??

Why Quartzsite Still Feels Like Home to Me (Even With the Problems) Final Description Welcome back to Travels With Dottie. This morning, Dottie and I head out for a long walk around Quartzsite — something I don’t take for granted after hip replacement surgery earlier this year. As we walk, I share some honest reflections about Quartzsite: the good, the bad, and why it continues to feel like home for me despite the stories you may hear. I talk about real concerns people raise — crime, noise, crowds, and negative experiences — and place them in context based on multiple winters spent here. I also compare RV park living to desert boondocking, explain how much control nomads actually have over their environment, and share what it’s like living in Quartzsite while running a YouTube channel. This isn’t about dismissing anyone’s bad experience. It’s about perspective, choice, and why this place still fills my heart.
