Unfortunately there's this thing called property rights which prevent people from living where the disasters aren't, unless they shell out exponentially more money year by year.
That sounds crazy. Are you or anyone else planning to do anything about this issue?
I mean I fully squat on public and unused private land in accordance with international squatting ideology, but most Americans believe property has more rights than humans could ever, and are willing to kill someone instantly if they violate those supposed property rights, so its extremely unlikely they'll do anything until after the total collapse of the US. Even then most of them will still uphold private property above true commons or even other humans, completely missing the point of existence.
So it sounds like people are doing nothing about this and content simply complaining about it online.
As long as you keep the neighborhood looking clean and safe for kids, no one truly gives a fuck if you're squatting... Which is what I hope most people think.
A safe place to live comfortably should be a fucking human right. Too bad this idea is seen as extremist socialist by most of the world, not just USA, so don't get this fact twisted saying that it's the only country that has this shit idealogy.
