A number of RVs have been parked under the BQE in Sunset Park in Brooklyn. The vehicles are said to be permanant residences for some New Yorkers attempting to escape increasing housing costs. (Trey Pentecost)

Hear all the happenings around the borough on the newest episode of the Brooklyn Paper podcast: this week delves into  small communities of RVs that have sprouted up across the borough.

The semi-mobile homes — equipped with water tanks and generators — have become refuges for Brooklynites unable to pay rent, residents say, and the communities are growing. Today, Brooklyn Paper Radio speaks to two RV owners who live under the Gowanus Expressway in Sunset Park to learn why they moved there, what their community is like, and why more Brooklynites are moving in.
