Little houses, on a hill top. Little houses made of tickey taffey…
Man, they really pack ‘em in, don’t they?
What they’re not telling you in this picture is that most of these houses are empty due to the crappy housing market in Vegas- they built way too much way too fast and then the economy crashed and no one bought.
Also, they’re packed together because it’s in the middle of the desert, so lawns are kinda pointless.
Gross
don’t light a match.. puts a whole new meaning to, “the whole neighborhood could go up in flames”..
