All the ones I know about are in snowbird locations but, of course all those snowbirds come home in the summer and could use a local port home. He was really intrigued and we talked for nearly an hour. I won’t be surprised if a community pops up around here one day. Zoning is an issue in some locations.

I've seen this as well. The RV has a special slideout that mates with an equal size opening in an outer wall of the home. Then the outer wall of the slide out opens like double doors. The RV and home create a virtually air-tight seal.
The port opening in the home was even (somewhat) 'funnel' shaped so that you could be off a few inches and still mate up with a good fit.
Pretty darn cool!
But NOT cheap - I'm told..
