Maybe a freeper could buy it and set up a ‘freeper retirement community’....

400k for a town? As long as there is water and electric...sounds good

Don't need it.

I already own a republic. I've named my two acres out in the desert The Wren Republic.

The wife and I have seceded.

Life is sweet in The Wren Republic!

I'd buy it, and do the following:

- Rename the town "Reaganville."
- Enact a land-value tax
- Opt out of Common-core and all state and federal education regulations
- Mandatory gun ownership

Thanks for the ping. I don’t have $400K — although it would be worth considering if the mineral rights come with it.

I’d be happy to contribute.

I’d be ready to leave where I am by Jan of next year.

A Freeper’s paradise or Galt’s Gulch

Wouldn’t it be cheaper to buy some land and create your own town?
