Firstly, there aren't a whole lot of RV Parks around the DFW metroplex. Maybe a dozen. But the main reason is that the area has suffered a short series of tornadoes followed by two back to back "hail storm of the century" events so every roofer, contractor, windshield repair guy, painter, insurance adjuster and auto body dent repair guy within 400 miles has descended into the area.
Literally something I'd expect to see more likely following a major hurricane
EDIT: the next challenge becomes finding a hotel that won't destroy your daily income. The hotel I'm in right now is filled with guys like me who have negotiated special rates for long stays. I'm currently at $49.99 a night. It's not as comfortable as the RV would be. But perhaps it is a bit more conveniently located as far as proximity to my work area. But at $350 a week it's not cutting into my bottom line much at all. Even though the RV park would only cost about that much for an entire month.
