Video: "Shanty Town" - The first tent city in the US after the housing bubble burst
Here are some videos of a tent city / shanty town that has popped up in the suburbs of Southern California. I've never seen anything like this in America since the great depression.

I am in So. Cal. I have not seen anything like this yet. I would like to know where it is.
It's in Ontairio Ca.. I am about 40 min away. I am going down there.
There have always bee little scatterd ones here too but nothing like the video is showing. And something like this of this size in Ontario Ca. has never happened. Thats why I'm going to go look for myself.
I fly into Ontario every year. I have driven all around, couldn't tell you where since I was lost, but I have never seen a tent city there.
I want to go there and camp for three days to see what it's like. I camp alot. I'm an outdoor guy.
I wonder if the place is called Bushville.
I wouldn't go. It seems a bit patronising to go without it being a necessity.
A bit like conducted tours round the lunatic asylum which rich members of the Paris posh used to see as a late Saturday night treat in ye olde dayes.

I used to hate watching those rich bastards stare at us.

That kind of true. And why add more traffic or treat ti like a spectacle.
