Sao Paulo is dangerous but not rural and destitute as Elroy.
The first driver who can find all four of his tires will win the race!! He can look at the 1/2 dozen used tire stores on Hi. 812. You know, the ones next to the junk yards.

Yep, that area is one of the ugliest in Travis County.
And I say that as an owner of farming acreage within arrow-shot of the COTA.
The 3rd world trash heap around there is quite unsightly, but any offers of $3/sq.ft. and up are heartily welcome.
Seriously though, you should've seen the Northwest Hills area up until 1964. Very similar.
Trash can be bulldozed almost overnight.
