I've been reading articles and viewing videos online about this place, and because of what I've read/seen, it strikes me primarily as a homeless camp with a 'separate' place for snowbirds that are not homeless. The snowbirds are scared of the locals because of drugs, crime, and constant begging. I also understand that around the base of every tree/shrub is garbage and human waste. This is what I understand from what I see online. But it very well could be that these articles could very well be biased. I would like to think it wasn't that way.
Has anyone visited this place and what is your write up ( if you have time). It fascinates me that a group of people will create a semi civil suburb in the middle of nowhere. It makes me think of a post-apocalyptic waste land where people have learned to survive without the comforts of modern society. There is a library, and dance hall/music stage, a church, and a local kitchen for pot-lucks.
Personally, the only thing I think is missing is a local pub supplied by a stile (something I'm sorry to say I would personally like to be involved in, if I should ever find myself there as a permanent resident). Also, a local well for water would be good too, if the water-table was potable..
