From about October until April there are upwards of a total of 2.5 MILLION RVers that have camped in Quartzsite, AZ for "the season". At any one time there are approximately 200,000-300,000. You would think that if there WERE a problem, not that many people would show up!! Now during the summer, it's a different story. There are about 3200 "year around" residents in Quartzsite. How do I know? Because I will soon be one of those. I spent all last week there and it got as hot as 106F, but from what I've been told it can go as high as 125F+, albeit for short periods of time. It is recommended (highly) that if you are NOT in your RV for extended periods of time, that you place trash cans (size depends upon how long you will be gone) filled with water to keep the inside from drying out. (I have friends that have spent time in Borrego Springs that do this). If you are living in your RV, then there should not be a problem, but you may want to increase the humidity level for comfort's sake. All of this is based upon what I have been told by those that have spent time under these conditions. I will be able to give you more "first-hand" knowledge after my experience living there. Hope this helps.
