has anyone here lived as a squatter?

Question

i'm looking for info on it in general, in the nyc/long island area specifically.

Answer 1

Yes, for a short while and a lot of my friends still do. The successful and more well known squats have all been bought with the help of loans so they aren't exactly squatting anymore. I've been in some of the other ones that didn't last that long though. It's very hard to open one up now in NYC unless you want to try to find a building in a terrible area and even then, it's difficult. I know nothing about L.I. You can message me if you have any particular questions and I can try to answer them.

Answer 2

No, I don't think I'm cut out for it.
