What issues do they cause? Is it just an eye-sore thing?

  I'm guessing an encampment of vans in a location with minimal facilities (restrooms and waste) has the potential to become something of a cesspool. That along with not everyone having the same free spirit love the world and leave no trace attitude (i.e. some homeless) can quickly create issues.

  Notably, meth labs, bike crime rings, fires. I think I recall something about a prostitution ring? It's a significant public health and safety issue here. A lot of crime and grief is localized around the RV encampments here. Broadly, you also have to consider trash, sewage, water, electricity, and heating. Plus some of the RVs are kinda dumps, but that's less relevant.
