Behind a tall, purple fence on a vacant lot in West Oakland, Adam Garrett-Clark is running a housing experiment.

About a half-dozen people who don’t want to or can’t afford a traditional apartment live here instead, in trailers and RVs outfitted with solar power, hot water and most of the other comforts of home. The bohemian space looks like a cross between a trailer park and a cheerful community garden — colorful and full of plants, with an open-air shower, a portable toilet, a grill and a fire pit encircled by deck chairs.
