    Of course you can access your meter, just lift the cover in the street, same way that the meter reader does.
    The first thing that you need to do is cross-check the serial numbers and the readings against your bill.
    Is your bill an actual or an estimate?
    Comparing to someone in a house is pointless, you don't say if they are on metered or RV billng. If the latter, and the property has a low RV, then yes their bill may well be much lower, the size of the property is not relevant to the RV.
    No free lunch, and no free laptop ;)

    There will be a stop valve next to the meter.
