Old-Abandoned-Farm-House-in-Ontario-22-378234704.jpg

I grew up in a rural place in the early 2000s. North of me was an abandoned farmstead, and further north was an abandoned house. East of me was an abandoned farmstead. And north west of my home was another abandoned house. 
Up the river from my house was yet another abandoned house. And there were ruins of houses everywhere in the woods from homes abandoned in the 1970s and 80s.

It was flipping awesome.

It occurred to me: Is this normal?
I live in an area where I'd have to travel a few miles to find an abandoned house (I only know of a few here)
Do you see a lot of abandoned homes or was this something that existed back in the 2000s because of some economic calamity or mud flood or something back in the dark 1980s-90s?

People had more money back then, so they could afford to forget about properties or ignore them Now? Everyone is sliding down the social mobility ladder, so they are looking for any little spec of wealth. If they see an abandoned property, you can be sure someone is trying to get it so they can sell, flip it, live on it, or give it to their kids.
Everything is being squeezed. It's like how you don't see a cumb of food near starving dogs or cats. They eat everything.

Detroit Michigan after the 2008 financial clusterfuck had a lot of abandoned homes. I heard these second hand stories about this guy's crusty punk sister and her friends and how they managed to squat in two of those properties during that time. Got paid a few thousand dollars in go away money twice over after developers took interest. The very idea of doing that, like that line from the Francis E. Dec rant

Legend has it that once one learns the ways of the mole people even the sewer alligators will remain tame and docile in their presence. Go for it. You could have a sewer alligator for a pet.

In unsightly places full of dumb evil Christian rednecks like Kansas and West Virginia not yet but it will happen. Since covid a lot of people, left-wing and right-wing, left the cities and moved to Appalachia and the northwest, where in the former farmland gets cleared for cookie cutter suburban homes and in the latter where mountains are cleared of their trees or even sheared to build McMansions.
