The town of Bridgeville is up for sale (again).
It's pricey ($1.7 million) but think of the potential.
It's in the incredibly beautiful redwood-strewn N. Calif coastal area, located on a river.
There ain't much there--a post office, a few closed stores and some dilapidated houses.
BUT it's an incorporated city. Which means you could set up your own police dept. Bring a few friends and you could get yourself elected mayor, chief of police and anything else you wanted. You could pass a law that would make it illegal NOT to smoke pot.
How cool is that?
It's in the massively mj-friendly Humboldt County, where people are allowed 99 pot plants each.

There are a few things you could do to attract visitors (Visitors mean income baby), like:
-Build and offer tours of an energy-efficient hempstraw bale circular house.
-Quickly erect a g. bush statue and sell stuff to throw at it.
-Build the world's biggest Lava Lamp.
-Make it legal to walk around town buck naked but only if you're a hot chick.
-Build a complete restoration of Mayberry, (courthouse, barber shop, Wally's Filling Station, etc) and hire Andy, Barney, Aunt Bee, Opie, Floyd and Gomer look-alike's to hang out.

So get out that checkbook and let's get this show on the road.

I would like to ask anyone here who buys it to appoint me minister of pornography.

1.7 million seems very cheap,
its to good to be true, it probably is

There is a reason why philathropist(sp) and billionaires
dont own towns/cities. For one you don't have your own
autonomy, no matter what you may think. You'll still under
county, state and federal jursidictions.

Can you imagine the tax liability??
most jurisdiction proven t hrough time, operate in the red
and deep debt.

If I hit the lottery, last thing i would do is buy a town, full of whiners
and complainers. Ill take my 1.7mill to amsterdamn

Starting today I am going to have 6 glazed donuts, a pound of bacon & a banana milkshake for breakfast- in a couple weeks I should fill out the shirtwaist dress and gravy-spotted apron I found at Goodwill.

Yes, I will be your Aunt Bee. ;)
