The world’s homeless don’t live anywhere near these places and even if they did, where are they going to get running water and food from. You’re not making any sense.
I live in Los Angeles and have traveled to the Salton Sea about 5 times. Bombay Beach no doubt is a bizarre place to visit with lots of people still living there. One house looks nice, the next one dilapidated, the next burnt out, truly bizarre. But you travel anywhere around the Salton Sea and it’s pretty jaw dropping. Instead of sandy shores the crunch of fish bones 2 feet deep greets you. Another area has lakeside houses with most abandoned with some inhabited but it’s difficult to tell which ones. If there is a car in the driveway someone probably lives there. If what you see looks like an abandoned boat it probably is abandoned. Everywhere you looks is very post nuclear and apocalyptic. It’s incredible. But then Palm Springs isn’t too far away so you can get back to a swanky good time surrounded by amazing mid century architecture.
In the Bombay Beach segment, you said that the "Colorado River was diverted to create the Salton Sea" as if it were deliberate. It was actually a natural breach of the riverbed into an ancient channel that ended in the low spot where the "Sea" formed. Geologically, this used to be the upper end of the Gulf of California before an upthrust cut it off and the water evaporated. There was an extensive salt mining operation there in the 19th Century, and most of the mining equipment is still there at the bottom. The water is evaporating again and will probably be gone in a couple hundred years if left alone. This is a cyclical phenomenon and has happened several times in the past.
Well the one that "hit home" to me was Bombay Beach at the Salton Sea! My brother lives there and I still enjoy walking around the place and viewing the abandoned places. Much had been artistically altered.
Bombay Beach and the Salton Sea was destroyed by big Corporate Farmers who dumped farm chemicals into that body of water and diverted its water for their use!
@Green Ghoul ahh yes, everyone knows about pripyat. That means it can't feature on a list of cities/towns/villages that have been measured based on the size. Pripyat is bigger than half of these on the list, but I guess it's shrunk in size because everyone knows about it.
what a shame No.15 No.4 and No.1 dont have residents. they all look lovely and livable, so makes no sense why people cant live in them. such a waste. thanks you for uploading this video - very entertaining
I accidently did stumble upon Bombay Beach. It looked beautiful from afar, when we jumped out of the car, we wondered where everyone was and then I saw the dead fish. That was about 20 years ago and I'll never return to that creepy place.
Tianduchang is no longer abandoned. Quite popular nowadays and easy to reach by Hanzhou's subway. Supposedly around 30 000 people live there, so it's much more than 2000 reported here.
Same as Ordos City. According to Wikipedia, the current population is over 2 million. Western media indeed tends to underreport or report everything about China in a negative light, but it's usually only partially correct.
What I learned from this video is that most of these abandoned towns are because non-renewable resources dried up in the region. We need to focus more on sustainability... humans are leeches!
I lived in Nagasaki for around a year back in university and you can see Gunkanjima (battleship island) from the shore while you're just.. out at the mall or park haha. You can take a boat/tour there too, it's really quite haunting. Especially since it was manmade it's like...futuristic dystopian ruins vibes.
Whenever people say the world is overpopulated I remind them of the fact China has countless ghost towns despite having over a billion people. The issue isn't space the earth is so big it would take a huge number of us to actually run our of space the issue is supply of resources
@@Mataylor17 exactly. We don’t understand how massive earth truly is in comparison to us. There is enough habitable land for everyone to have a plot with housing and such. Humanities issues are self made.
The issue with supply is manmade, especially in the West. Capitalism drives profit by restricting supply. All the while availability trails behind demand, prices can be artificially inflated. We are being exploited all the time.
@@ngud_gaming267 , of course this argument forgets that humans are not the only ones that live on the planet. Does it also mean you would happy with billions more people living on the planet? Given that the humans that we do have can’t look after the world, I would say that is way over populated. I know you will say that if we fix the problems then it’s fine and there’s plenty room but let’s be honest, nobody is fixing anything soon.
Overconsumption is the real problem. We'll kill this planet with pollution before we ever start caring for it. Just look at the decline in biodiversity...how long until humans have an extinction level event? Probably far away enough for us not to be around, but not far away enough where someone's grand kids shouldn't start being concerned.
Update on Centralia, Pa. The fire was suspected as having burned itself out after about 60 years. In April 2020, the area was thought to have been bought by a coal company. They started covering up the graffiti highway with dirt to keep people away from the area.
@@sweetbeep Probably. They might already have a mine really close to Centralia and want to keep going and not have to worry about the property lines. The satellite views look like Centralia has a strip mine at each end of town. Most of my info comes from other You tube videos. Also looks like the graffiti highway is almost all covered up.
@@thetradersam6157 Might be a good cheap Air B&B community if utilized correctly. A Middle Eastern Las Vegas? Then again it could be an operating and maintenance nightmare.
The whole idea behind that project was selling those only to rich arabs. That project is nowhere near any big city. Located in a village of Bolu, Mudurnu it's pretty much just forests and a few locals there
Abandoned cities solves the homeless problem. Send the homeless to these places to fix them up& live. Make the ones salvageable green cities. Doze the others that are to far gone over!
Yeah take homeless people and spend our tax money on them of which they don't contribute to, then we can raise our taxes even more. Fuck yeah, great idea!
Maybe this could be part of the answer.. Some homeless people would most likely need help with health and/or mental health first, support, maybe detox.. Some of these places seem to be toxic or worse and would need cleanup and fixing, top minds would need to work on this too.. Why doze the rest? As tourist attractions they can or could still bring in some money..
@Ev ita Digital nomads or such can live anywhere, even if there are no local 'jobs', as long as there are livable conditions.. Some people prefer to be around not so many people.. There would need to be not only ex homeless people, also others too, of course..
I went to Centralia this year and the Graffiti Highway was covered up 😢 but it was so cool to see everything still! The old graveyard is still there and you can still find the Graffiti Highway, it's just mounds if dirt, still walkable though.
I just went there like middle of July, it was cool seeing how Smokey the air was around there for being such a dead area, I was sad about them covering it up tho
Unfortunately during the 2020 lock down people were out on graffiti highway gathering and partying vs adhering to social distance. It didn’t take long for it to be covered over with dirt. It was going to happen eventually, it was never advised or even permitted to be there to begin with.
17:58 Number1: Ashgabat is the capital of Turkmenistan and is a political-administrative and cultural center. For example, it has a university (founded in 1950) and an Academy of Sciences (since 1951), various colleges, theaters and museums, a botanical garden and a zoo and a total population of 773,400. Not bad for an abandoned city I'd say.
Does anyone realize that where I live in Florida we have a ton of people with jobs living in homeless shelters because there’s no affordable place to live. It’s sad and it’s scary. If my rent goes up much more I don’t know what I can do. But as long as people will pay it, they will raise it. I used to manage apartments and that’s what I did. But we were not in a housing crisis like now.
Your info about Ordos is a bit misleading. Ordos City in Inner Mongolia, China actually has a population of about 2.2 mil. The "ghost city" was actually KANGBASHI new city area unveilled in 2001 and just a district in Ordos. Its development & plans for 1M by 2023 came to a halt in 2008/9 but it does now have a population of a few hundred thousand with continuing growth. Certainly not what was expected & this video put out a yr ago by a fellow Cdn, Alex White of Reporterfy Media explains what actually happened & were things stand today. ruclips.net/video/-WhYKYmCBX0/видео.html
With the current state of affairs in Ukraine, I think this list would be altered. Apart from current issues, I am missing Famagusta (Cyprus) on this list
I’ve been to Ordos (first city in the video) and I do not agree at all with the definition of “abandoned city”: as a matter of fact it is the opposite, it is a “not yet filled city”! It was built to host one million people, and only 1/10 (i.e., 100,000 people) have moved in so far. An abandoned city is one that WAS inhabited and later (that is) abandoned. Ordos is filling is more slowly than expected, and it does give you an eerie feeling (which is the reason why I went there), but it is obviously the opposite of a town that has been abandoned.
I’ve been to Kohlmannskopf in Namibia, it was crazy, you could trudge into the homes of folks who used to just pick diamonds up off the ground, and the homes were just being completely overtaken by the desert, filling with sand…
Orodos city would be my dream place. The parks, views, water, without being packed in? Where do I sign up? There has to be some people there. To maintain at least? The sculptures are beautiful
That's what I'm saying! I'd hate to live in a newly developed but fairly empty city where I get to enjoy everything without being packed in like a sardine.
Poor boomers! Imagine the future generations who aren’t even going to have retirement funds because of all the past generations being greedy and corrupt!
Most of Ashgabat was destroyed in a 1948 earthquake and rebuilt in soviet style. It has 1 million+ residents. How does it qualify as an abandoned city?
Tiandu city is actually now just a large “park” in hangzhou and it’s really not that rural. Pretty developed surroundings and is located in hangzhou city and I’ve been there a few times to do photo shoots which is mainly what it is used for now.
What are you talking about ????? Ashgabad you have shown, was built after the Soviet Union, as a capital city of independent Turkmenistan, with only one intantion, to show off. The original city, built during russian imperial and soviet times, still exists with over one million population. However, the government don't invest in its renovation or at least keeping to good standard like in soviet time. Even though the country is very rich, living standards are very low, a world away from the Soviet time .... All money stolen or invested in useless show off projects, like new Ashgabad ....
Really interesting. In Germany, the nazis did build one city bordering the sea for their troops to go on vacation and that is abandoned, and could be a place to send the ucranians refugees to live.

I live in Los Angeles and have traveled to the Salton Sea about 5 times. Bombay Beach no doubt is a bizarre place to visit with lots of people still living there. One house looks nice, the next one dilapidated, the next burnt out, truly bizarre. But you travel anywhere around the Salton Sea and it’s pretty jaw dropping. Instead of sandy shores the crunch of fish bones 2 feet deep greets you. Another area has lakeside houses with most abandoned with some inhabited but it’s difficult to tell which ones.

Hashima Island was used in 'Skyfall'. And Bodie was also a set for 'Hell's Heroes'.
80% Elderly are homeless in the united States ❗️ build a Community without all the red tape, for people 60 and Over or 50 and older 🤷🏾♀️
Poor boomers! Imagine the future generations who aren’t even going to have retirement funds because of all the past generations being greedy and corrupt!
Im sorry did you mean 80% of US elderly are homeless? Or 80% of homeless are elderly? Neither one is true
Hashima Island would make a great casino and resort with docks for super yachts
I'll live to this places. No rent and taxes
Most of Ashgabat was destroyed in a 1948 earthquake and rebuilt in soviet style. It has 1 million+ residents. How does it qualify as an abandoned city?
Hello Liar how are you doing today
Why don't these towns get back into blooming or is it because it's not worth it anymore??
Tiandu city is actually now just a large “park” in hangzhou and it’s really not that rural. Pretty developed surroundings and is located in hangzhou city and I’ve been there a few times to do photo shoots which is mainly what it is used for now.
What are you talking about ????? Ashgabad you have shown, was built after the Soviet Union, as a capital city of independent Turkmenistan, with only one intantion, to show off. The original city, built during russian imperial and soviet times, still exists with over one million population. However, the government don't invest in its renovation or at least keeping to good standard like in soviet time. Even though the country is very rich, living standards are very low, a world away from the Soviet time .... All money stolen or invested in useless show off projects, like new Ashgabad ....
Really interesting. In Germany, the nazis did build one city bordering the sea for their troops to go on vacation and that is abandoned, and could be a place to send the ucranians refugees to live.
It's spelled "Ukrainian".
Need a hell of alot of sage to clear the energy of that place
