These Are The Top 10 Strangest Towns In The States

When you think of a small town, you immediately think of tiny houses that all somehow look alike, with people all knowing each other by their first name or some nickname and everything is so whimsical and cute. Is that the right assumption for these towns? Let’s see, shall we?

We start with the Villages in Florida. With its 34 golf courses, it is known as Florida’s Friendliest Retirement Hometown. So friendly in fact, that its population of roughly 70,000 has one of the highest STD rates in all of Florida! How ya doin’, neighbor?

PhinDeli Town in Buford, Wyoming is next on this list. Once known as just Buford, this town for just $900,000 to a Vietnamese coffee magnate. The new owner of the town renamed it into PhinDeli, his brand of coffee, which is also sold at the town’s single gas station. Welcome to PhinDeli Town, population:1.

We follow up with Slab City in California, a decommissioned, uncontrolled town of roughly 150 inhabitants, where they do whatever the heck they want. Its citizens vary from drug addicts, eccentrics, hippies and basically anyone that would like to be free. Sounds like a good idea.

Coming back to Florida, we have Miracle Village, set up by a minister to rehabilitate ostracized sex offenders. Over 100 registered sex offenders live in this small secluded town, with more applicants pending.

While in the Sunshine State, we visit Gibsonton, also known as Gibtown. Its citizens are all carnival workers, where 15,000 of them live there during their off-season. A swarf served as their police chief, while an 8-foot-tall man was their fire chief.

There are five more quirky cities to visit, so be sure to keep watching to learn about them. Who knows, maybe one of them is in your neighborhood!

While on the subject of peculiar towns, we just have to tell you of the Norwegian town that needs mirrors in order to see the sun! Now imagine living there!
