Never been to Mesa so cannot compare. We've spent time since wintering in the South and find the RGV preferable and this will be our 5th winter. Like you plan we spent a month here in Oleander Acres in Mission, TX and have been coming back since.
We are not Snow Birds we are referred to as 'Winter Texans'. You will find billboards and marquees saying "Welcome Home or (Back) Winter Texans". Reasons to come here: Warmer weather, little pollution; friendlier people and businesses; less expensive. Mission has 60 RV parks so your choices are endless. Approximately 160,000 Winter Texans in the Valley. You will find parks at $200/mo plus electricity to $1,000/mo plus electricity. We pay $865 for 3 months plus electricity. Club house, but no pool or fancy amenities. You will find most parks are pet friendly, just pick up after your pet.
Wind and dust are negatives. We are in a 5 yr drought. All that comes to mind right now. Watching Packers beat Vikings. GO PACK!!
