This video is probably the most attention this place has got in at least half a century.

[@WiseRiley]

every house is so different, wtf, weirdly amazing town, it’s like from a movie

Looks like a group of people from all walks of life just said "fuck it" and built a row of houses for themselves around some bumfuck country road

[@chilldude30]

It looks shite

[@Chadgigington]

Its pretty depressing when you realise that this is how Scottish folk "go on holiday"

[@LifeShortsGaming]

This had me roaring, thank you.

[@nordlandskaka]

Way to generalise. Only upper-middle class Scotch and above can afford the luxury of a Google Street Viewcation.

[@Chadgigington]

[@vilentman111]

auch its not bad.. stick a VR headset on and you're practically there

[@darz_k.]

​@@vilentman111 *no *ess no bad

[@djedd23]

So I looked up the Wikipedia page and it’s an old mining town. Used to have a population of 928 back in 1890. must have been some buzz then

[@warbwarb]

You don't need to put so at the start of the sentence

[@Dahcuesta]

@@warbwarb Why not

[@RoamingHeathen]

@@warbwarband you don’t need to reply. So I guess we’re all just doing unnecessary shit they we want to do

[@anunusualironiccircumstanc2108]

There’s a big class gap on that street. From tiny stone church, to fancy motor shelters to shanty box.

Welcome to the US of A

[@jessesherer9792]

In the city its crowded apartments right next to an ugly mcmansion.

[@tc98826]

its also how they look after them. the size differences arent as big as the care for the appearance.

[@na-vn5qy]

i used to live roughly 150-200 yards from train tracks and it could be absolutely miserable at times; i couldn't imagine them being half a stone's throw away.

[@RetroPlus]

Ideal place of living for a train enthusiast

[@dontaskme7004]

5:27 house number 8955 in a place with a population of around 60 people... Where did the others go?

[@johnschmidt6840]

Nearly yelling pontoon boat at my screen

[@NickBFTD]

I had surmised it was something like that myself, but I had never seen or heard of such a boat before in my life, Limmy has most likely not either.

[@ThatGuyThanus]

I love exploring places I’ll never get anywhere near, in real life, through the magic of Google streetview, like this.. 👍

[@strelok230]

Use to live about a football field away from tracks. Honestly, you kinda get use to it after awhile....

[@rossfromfriends8468]

I love these random cities explorations because most Americans cities of a certain size ( not this one) look the same with the same walmarts , strip malls and gas stations. Alot of America is interchangeable

[@fanda6122]

an island dotted with tescos and lidls and identical council estates and the same exact climate everywhere is way more samey than the United States which has huge cultural, geographic and regional variety.

[@Jagar_Tharn]

Insides of the buildings, too. It's amazing how many offices have copied the same layout, and all buy the same dividers/chairs/desks etc..

[@DCI-Frank-Burnside]

Crackertown, Gatorville, Missouri. Born and raised, sir.

[@Catonius]

take that Sweden.

[@duncle1253]

this is my fav limmy content atm

[@Meladjusted]

There's a small platform that sticks out in front of the boat for diving or fishing off of while anchored. The little door is for getting to it. Having a tiny door means not needing to have a constantly open part in the walls of the boat. These boats are typically for families, so it keeps little kids safe, as well as the different stuff you've brought on board for the day from being flung out the boat (they can go faster than you'd probably think). Pontoon boats are really common in the US.

[@polartechie]

I guess scotts don't know about lake boats since Nessie eats em all

[@dalebrown325]

We don’t have lakes you see…

[@Catonius]

old man confused by boat with outboard motor removed.

[@yeahnah6468]

You can see the outboard still fitted to the back though..

[@Catonius]

2:05 nice air bnb

That would be a £2k /mo studio in London

[@TwiceButt]

1:59 is where blahem guy lives

[@ScottishBr4h]

Was expecting him to make the noise too

[@Datapoint90]

It is a so-called pontoon boat.

[@bannjaxx]

Limmy, it's just a boat for chrissakes, don't embarrass us.

[@RobWright1981]

I can't travel overseas due to a disability, and Google Earth is my tourism.

[@lemagreengreen]

The fucking numbers on the houses. 59 people and that house with the dug is Number 8955!?

[@bassbytes]

Never built any foundations under those houses by the looks of those cracks.

[@Wruce_Bayne]

They could film the next The Hills Have Eyes there

[@jibathus]

Thought it was going to be Starkville Mississippi, could find Charlie.

The inner city pallor is so deep its soaked into his brain. He can't even comprehend living anywhere not grey damp concrete for miles😁

[@Swindel67]

Grey damp sandstone I'll have you know!

[@SamThredder]

man that boat thing was so frustrating hahahah i was ripping my hair out boiling over inside saying stuff at the telly like ITS A BOAT ON A TRAILER. THE THING IS A DOOR SO PEOPLE CAN WALK ON TO IT. THE WATER LINE IS LOWER THAN THE DOOR. THE DOOR IS AT THE BACK SO NO WAVES WOULD GET IN. IT HAS AN ENGINE, THAT IS HOW IT MOVES. A CAR TOWS IT TO WHEREVER IT NEEDS TO BE. ITS A SINGULAR BOAT. etc etc. fucking hell limmy i know you're daft but fuck me hahahahah

[@lunarmare0]

like a walking dead set

[@kieranbrain7765]

Hope someone in Starkeville know that 24 thousand people who where and what it is now

[@aaronobrien5154]

Did Limmy get really confused by the boat or is it just me…. He thought the back of the boat was the front, and that it was a weird new boat-craft😮

[@craigrfoley]

Classic Limmy, knew he was wrong and fucked it so made it more mysterious

[@straightouttacornwall]

I googles house prices for this place. They almost pay you to live there. Almost,

[@Chadgigington]

Care to tell us how much?

[@straightouttacornwall]

@@Chadgigington I seen several property for $10,000. I'm sure there's cheaper as well lol

[@Chadgigington]

@@straightouttacornwall that's insane. Would be great if you had a nice work from home job. The amount of money you'd then save up would be huge

[@straightouttacornwall]

@@Chadgigington 100%. The area around the place looks like a scene from Mad Max though. The 'town' only has a population of 62 so I imagine most of the town girls have webbed feet.

[@Chadgigington]

​@@straightouttacornwall So what you're saying is you reckon they give good footjobs?

[@DesmondSunflower]

Premier Pontoons

[@SongBillong]

Nice one, cheers. Looks like a fairly basic model but probably cost more than some of those little houses when it was new. Crazy

[@KarlHamilton]

At holes fey the dug

Do Rochelle IL next. Its a perfect example of a small American town that isn't dying or dead.

What is keeping Rochelle alive?

[@ryanwiese5280]

@@mendelovitch Two major railroads cross in the middle of town, and two major interstates pass by right outside of town. Always new people and customers coming through.

There’s def some dark shit happened in Starkville! I wouldn’t be stopping over here.

[@Meladjusted]

You've never seen a place like this before? lol. They're very common in the south and southwest. Towns industries left behind.

[@anttitheinternetguy3213]

Those people MUST be railroad workers, who The heck would live there?

Would 100% live here in a heartbeat lmao

[@johnnewbury4370]

Me.

[@anttitheinternetguy3213]

Lol im not gonna judge, im Finnish And live in The forest by The lake, that place looks way too empty And dry For me If The Houses would Be made of Wood i'd feel More comfortable

[@trenta.958]

@@anttitheinternetguy3213 "Too empty and dry" he says, yet the entire state of Colorado has a larger population than the entire country of Finland, and much more variation in its landscape. This is just one tiny hamlet out in the sticks among many.

[@remjojic549]

The guy could even see the wheel on the boat. It was pissing me off

[@mendelovitch]

What do you mean?

[@SongBillong]

@@mendelovitch The boat (pontoon) clearly had a steering wheel. REM Jojic is saying that Limmy should have realised it was a pontoon (or at least some type of boat)

It looks like a peaceful street, shame that its right by the "tren".
