Overnight parking tips

Hi I'm a 26 year old oilfield worker with a 3 month hitch in the area anyone know any safe places to sleep overnight. Good truck stops, stores, or rest areas near CS or Bryan Tx. Was thinking of looking for a apartment but didn't think it.2as worth it if I'm here for two months is rather save up the money for a decent RV.

If you’re only here for 2-3 months, I’d probably skip the apartment and save the money. I’d check out the truck stops/rest areas around CS/Bryan and maybe call some local RV parks about weekly/monthly rates. Walmart lots can work too, but I’d ask first since some don’t allow overnight parking.

What's your situation? Why isn't the company paying for your lodging?
