Like 5 people live there. The town consists of 4 houses and a tractor I believe. It's a meagre 80 acres.

Shoot, I should have bid more than my original 1.75 million offer, but I was saving up to get a new monitor. I wonder what they're asking for Newark these days. I could probably buy that with the change on the floor under my desk.

Are the people who live there paying rent or something? Can the onwer apply his own taxes or sth like that? I still don't understand this...
