I lived in Whittier. The OP forgot to mention that the other building used to be a mall. It caught on fire and was abandoned to never be rebuilt again due to it containing asbestos. The governor said it was too risky to tear down as it would release the asbestos. And there it stands as a landmark. But yes, it is haunted. I was in the theater in this building and it gave me the chills. Whittier is also a fish cannery town. Salmon and other fish are processed there. There is only one restaurant and fuel station. The snow gets up to 15 feet at times and when it snows you're stuck for a few months. The tunnel is closed. Princess cruise lines also stops there and though there is only one restaurant, there are a couple of eateries. Very expensive. There's also a frozen water fall, home to a huge glacier, and mining company. If you ever find yourself in AK, Whittier is well worth the time. It's quite beautiful and unique...
I was born, raised and live in Anchorage, Alaska and I've been to Whittier several times. It's mainly a tiny fishing town, but the beauty of the surrounding mountains, glaciers and the bay make it worth the drive from Anchorage. There is a gas station and a couple of cafe's & bars.. The whole city is not inside the one building, but most residents live in the one building.. lol.. also, Girdwood is closer since it's halfway between Whittier and Anchorage.

The village i live in, a village called Degeberga in southern Sweden, isn't big compared to other villages, but it is big for a village in Sweden. There lives around 1,340 people there, me included. It's really a small town, and while there isn't much to do for us Gen Z, but we do have one grocery shop, one flower seller, one antiquety shop, a bakery, a park, two swimming pools, a few football fields and other sports ammenities, a fire brigade, a few motels, an apocethary, so we don't need to get to other bigger villages, towns and cities for medicins, and then there's a small outdoors petting zoo, with a few goats, ducks and geeze. There is also a nature reserve, with the biggest waterfall in the county where the village is located. Here's a fun fact for you. The sothern most county in Sweden, Skåne, or Scania, which also is a landscape, because we here in Sweden don't have states, regions, provinses or anything like that, but instead, the Swedish counterpart of all those are called landscapes, and some only have one or two counties, except for a few outliers, Scania and Lappland, the Swedish one, not the Finnish one, has more than that. Scania alone has nine counties, while it itself is a county and landscape. Small edit. There is also a nuclear bunker and a school, plus a few pizzarias, a thai food wagon, a small restaurant and fast food, a few day cares for kids, and the nuclear bunker lies under the school and library.

25:00 -- Your "old and stubborn" suggestion isn't far off. The 5 remaining residents of Centralia -- as well as a few others who've since passed on -- were a handful of holdouts who, out of some combination of pride, nostalgia, and stubbornness, refused to leave even when the government ordered them to. After years of battling, they eventually reached a settlement that allows them to remain in their homes on the condition that said homes can't be passed down to their heirs, but will revert to the government upon their deaths at which time they'll presumably be demolished.

I loved all of Egypt and its people when I was there for a year. I also agree with all you said in your comment! There are much, much worse things to see than that. No matter where you live, only the richest people can afford to live in a place where they look out over green grass and plants or flowers. And to get that rich you need to be willing to walk all over other people and their rights. Not all of us are so lacking in morals that we are willing to do that. (This is not meant as an insult to you. Not at all! It's just a comment on other people.)

Speaking of running out of room for burials, Bill Bryson’s book At Home, a Short History of Private Life, describes looking out across the English countryside and seeing multiple church steeples in the distance all around, each representing an accompanying graveyard. His friend he was with asked him if he’d ever noticed how old churches seem to be sunk into the ground? His friend suggested it’s because of centuries of burials in the churchyard! And from the hilltop view they had, they were probably gazing out over thousands upon thousands of burials, just in the last 150 years alone, as each steeple represented a community’s below-ground population as well as the above, the one below-ground-number possibility being multiple times more. Sobering, but that’s . . . life.

Wow! I've given this some thought before, ever since I read a sci-fi book about it, many decades ago. It's time we outlawed burying caskets of wood, metal, and plastic, filled with synthetic fabric, and bodies full of highly toxic chemicals! I can't believe that wasn't outlawed well over 500 years ago! There is already very little land left that is good for anything but piling more toxic waste on top of what's already there!
Just 10 degrees Farenheit (-12 C) in the winter? As someone that often had to go to school in -20 C, this sounds pretty ridiculous.

Too many rightwingers are too greedy to share, even a tiny bit. Just watch. The space below will become full of their excuses. They will claim all poor people are at fault for their own poverty. They'll say the people are too lazy, and they don't deserve any help. Even though they themselves were given 100 or even 1000 times as much help as any poor person would ever have a hope of getting from any government. And that help that they got from their family was originally stolen from others, but they put on airs and pretend that isn't true. They claim they earned it. I am descended partly from the British. I don't know if they were rich or not initially. But if I can admit that it's possible that I benefited from stolen money, why can those who DEFINATELY did benefit from stolen money not admit it? And why can they not help anyone else? They are monsters!

I know eh! It's -14 C outside right now, here in Edmonton, or +6.8°F, and snowing quite a bit. I hate it when it gets above -15, because then everything gets slushy as hell. Cars, sidewalks, floors everywhere get covered in slush. The trails I love to ski on turn into a dirty looking nightmare, instead of a beautiful, clean, white expanse. Then, when it gets colder again, everything turns into sheer ice! The entire city of over 1 million people and many square kilometers (or miles) becomes one huge skating rink! I'd prefer it if it was like Winnipeg, where it gets cold and stays that way. There is still some ice, but less, and there's only 1 slushy period in the spring. But then Edmonton sucks anyhow, regardless of snow or temperature. Too many right wing fanatics here!

Whittier, Alaska can get down to 10 degrees F, so they build a tunnel so the kids can safely go to school. Dude!

Yeah, "global warming" wasn't happening here last winter.

Whittier, Alaska sounds fascinating. Only 214 people in such isolation. The questions just swirl. That building looks large, what is it divided like inside? How do people raise families there? How long does the average person live there? Is there a dating scene? What’s the average income? What’s the cost of living? Is there a wealth disparity? Do the kids go off to college? What is there to do there? Do the professionals go off to learn their trade then return? Do they have a veterinarian? How often do residents go on vacation and see other family? Do micro-trends there occur in terms of fashion, popular media, and slang? Sounds like an opportunity for an interesting semi-fictional novel. So much opportunity for unusual and compelling stories. But it sounds like super dangerous to live or even visit. Hospital or not, for anything serious, surely you’re being sent to Anchorage by LifeFlight? What is their industry? I’ve got to look more into this place. It seems worse off than Longyearbyen, Svalbard, the farthest Nothern settlement in the world. There are at least something like 2,000 people there. But speaking of the population, nobody should give birth there, in case of complications, and they move to the mainland several weeks from their due date just in case. It being an American town makes it culturally so accessible to me, but in every other way possible, extremely remote.
I lived in anchorage and Whittier is amazing they have lots of cafes camping and convenience stores. We traveled there a few times when it was 10 F which is nothing btw we have been in -28 F for hours at a time mostly for an amazing ice sculpture showing I went on this amazing ice slide it was awesome I went faster than any other slide ever. Anyway the drive isn’t that bad and they don’t all live in one building although most do but the sights are amazing! Also Seward isn’t pronounced sea-ward it’s sew-ard say it right please. Last thing Whittier is awesome and the drive through the tunnel is surreal your in there for around 20-30 minutes and when you get out the lil town is awesome if you go try their cafes they are amazing!

Sealand was in international waters for a time, but the jurisdiction lines for other countries were drawn and it's now within the UK territory. Not to say it can't be it's own nation. Let them have their fun, I say. Who is it hurting? They had their own football team. Defunct, but they plan to revive it.
So were all gonna brush off the fact he has 1 bottle?
If Sealand is "terra nullis", it can become indeed independent if it is inhabited by new people.
