This video makes The Slabs appear to be all 'live and let live' and 'peace, man'. But having watched numerous videos from vloggers who've been there, common occurrences seem to be getting attacked by the semi-wild packs of dogs that roam around the place, having your belongings stolen in the night, and getting into potentially serious confrontations with unpredictable tweakers. Oh, and the threat of having your whole camp set alight if you upset the wrong people. I'd like to go, just to see the place for myself, but it'd have to be with at least one other person I knew I could rely on in a tight spot.

[@TrishCanyon8]

I still have scars from dog attack. 🐕 No it's not free or lawless. Imperial county sheriff patrols regularly and you either have a way to support yourself or you steal, or opt for handouts. Many people there are drug addicted and that's why they stay. They are not cool, free, or any different than the homeless on city streets. I've had some wonderful experiences there and enjoyed many of the people and now I'm having great moments somewhere else. I just got tired of the constant battle to protect my goods from thieves and cons. If you have anything, there really is an attitude of "you need to SHARE or you're not cool."

[@bluemountaindrivepae]

The water truck driver is doing okay.

[@leannemo7382]

Good water, sewage service, and sanitation costs. That's what taxes can cover, but they don't want to be taxed. So the citizens need to head-up/make their own services available, which takes some research, hard work, and time. And most of those workers and contributors will want compensation via monies or bartering/trade. That's how a more advanced (clean & healthy) society functions. Taxes are only a bad thing, when what you must contribute is excessive to your personal or community needs.

[@jimbeam-ru1my]

Some Slab people have talked about Buying Slab City...Problem: Once you buy the property, you are responsible for bringing it all up to code...expensive! many, many years of garbage, human waste, burnt out vehicles, etc. There are also LAWS regarding number of people that can "camp" there and there are requirements for sanitation (running water, electricity, garbage pick up, etc). The soil is toxic with waste. I agree there need to be numerous "homeless" camps for homeless all over the US...something that needs to be addressed sooner rather than later. I mean, just how much "more" can you take from people that have NOTHING? It is absolutely absurd that the USA has so many homeless yet, no camps for people to at least live in the barest, basic way.

Fascinating story. Fascinating place. I can't say just why, can't find the words but this place just simply intrigues me. I've watched numerous videos about this place. I feel for those people. They are in a catch-22 situation now. They went there for all the reasons that the place represents. Complete and total freedom from the rules and regulations of the world. No rent, no mortgage, no taxes, no hassles, etc...but, the reality of the human condition has reared its head. You have a group of peole forming a board of directors and those people are assuming authority and attempting to dictate to the rest. Exactly what those people went to that place to escape from. And, the board attempts to justify themselves by asserting that they are doing what they are doing for the good of the community. Totally oblivious to the fact that it is just that kind of thinking that the majority went there to escape from. The remedy for that is for the majority to evict the board members from the community. Drive them away and once again become the Last Free Place in the World. The woman whose husband came up with that phrase should be ashamed of herself. Obviously the clueless woman is not. She just doesn't get that she is participating in the destruction of the entire concept of Slab City and all it represents. Busy body do-gooders are a real and present threat to freedom everywhere it raises its ugly head.

[@gwagon2010]

And of course if they don't engage with the rest of the world ,and get some form of permission to live there, the place will prob be bulldozed and everyone moved on , and that's a human condition too , we admire the free thinkers and lifestyles but society eventually swallows them up, destroying what they believed in and what we maybe aspired too and admired. How may utopias in history have existed and being destroyed? how many cults or off grid religions , how many islands settled or colony's built , only to be swallowed up by humankind . Lets face it humans really are not the best animal to be running the planet are they?, if not for a freak of nature this earth should be ruled by tigers and lions and sharks etc, while nature balances itself out with prey and predators , the Forrest and pristine rivers , the mighty oceans etc etc. The earth was a perfect cycle , with everyone and everything in its place ,................ man we a are a screw up.

So God help them, and God bless them cuase its a desert and a jungle out there for them with the other stories I see and hear about the rough crowds, theft, and vandalism. It would be nice to think of a place where there are no laws and rules that conflict or that are made to chase people who either want to or have to live on what they have without driving themselves crazy just trying to pay high rent with nothing else left.

Not a legal septic tank in the area.

Long live the Slabs!

[@rockyalvarez520]

Three years since yhis video...what happened with the application to buy it?

[@sail4free1]

Last I heard, they couldn't raise the $3,000 fee required to submit an offer for state consideration. :( But that was as of last winter ('16/'17) so things may have changed since then.

why have a bad opinion of it, if you're not there mind your own business, hell get a life

[@northernwarrior6319]

I could smell that place from here dude!!!!!😀😀😀

[@jaggirl]

I think that is exactly what they say in order to move everyone off the land. They are now looking into what could be buried there. They will say it was a dumping site decades ago for the military or something like that. It is unsafe for people to habit there.... I could be wrong ,but I doubt I'm too far off...

[@user-oy9zy4ds9m]

What do they mean free? Can I go there and break federal laws? State laws?

[@jonmacdonald5345]

Joe Vazquez you sure Can!!!!!!!! Just don't get Caught! lol

The cops don't go there a whole lot

[@josephdavis8074]

Im sure theres alot of meth

[@tuberose4601]

they mean.no one cares

[@romeysiamese6662]

It seems like a very hard life. Working, struggling, trying to keep up with the cost of living is tough. But this….idk, can’t do it. I lived in an RV for a yr. It had AC. We hooked up to water/sewer/elec. I’m too weak for Slab City.

[@youdeserveit8575]

Is this near Nude City Jucumba?

[@jackiechavez1900]

All homeless living in LA are moving towards Suberban areas, giving me no other choice but move out further more. I hope all homeless will find the strength to stop doing drugs and if it’s not drugs then whatever the case maybe. I hope they find the strength to find help and start from there.

[@Peter7966]

Define free.

[@sherrymiller2302]

Are they saying this is a place where crazy people can live with other crazy people? Well, maybe they're happier that way. I don't know....

[@peculiarlittleman5303]

No need to appear normal or socially acceptable so you won't be judged or worse, sounds really good. But meth enthusiasts and people with warrants for serious offenses hide there too. No place for a loner. Thats why I'm not their.

[@mitchcole9631]

I would buy this place and make an old west style town for them. Let them live for free.

[@damonwereman9297]

P.S. Thanks for the video.

[@marksimmons3801]

ima buy slab city and start charging everybody rent !!!!! hahaha J.K

0:48 mark....Bing

[@silenttraveler2710]

I hope not for long. This place should have been closed years ago. I went one time to Slab city. What a dump. Dirty and Toxic. Trash and dog shit everywhere, not to mention human shit. The residents don’t care about the environment, I have been to city dumps that are cleaner then this place. Why these people don’t get together and clean this place up i don’t understand. Yuk Yuk Yuk

[@adrianlee3497]

Silent Traveler That's probably the first thing I'd do is start burning waste and garbage. Clean it up.

[@adamlewandoski7144]

All dope heads care about is the next fix,they would most likely pick up a needle laying in shit wipe it off on their nasty filthy clothes and shove it in their arm.

[@TheOne-uo4sv]

Skid Row or Slab City....

If it was a military base then what did they use for sewer and water
