Does anyone know how I could go about that

I know San Francisco (allegedly) still has Homes Not Jails, at least in theory; is there anything like this in LA, anything organised that one could join to find a Squat to occupy, maybe the Occupy Movement still, or what? Otherwise it's dangerous to go out on one's own, especially being female...

I’ve heard the sentiment that living on the road attracts the wildest experiences. I agree wholehearted. But I would add that living this lifestyle also attracts the wildest people. Because when you’re a vagabond and people who are living on the fringes spot you in public, they can often...

So.. little trip update for ya'll on some traveling I did this last week. So I came down to the states from Alaska for a few weeks to visit family and friends and get a break from the cold and dark -- Jan/Feb is when the winter really starts to drag on. Ended up in LA with the intention of...

Hello! I stubbled across this community on reddit and was encouraged to check it out! I've always been interested in Anarchism and squatting in general so I would absolutely love to learn more. I'm planning to squat in LA sometime during the fall and winter so I can have some place to be while...

Thinking of staying here for the winter, with my lil Subaru and large puppy dawg. Curious what recommendations are out there for cool spots to check out, potential friends and situations, places to park/ camp/ live/ vibe… I know how it goes~ you find your place, anywhere ya end up. Either...

"Give up the condo life, and all your flaming worldly possessions …" – The Narrator, Fight Club (1999) And so I did. The story of "the rich young ruler" in the Bible always got to me. I was always ashamed that I was holding onto everything I had. The funny thing is, now that I'm not, I feel...

Not sure if this is the most accurate place to post and hoping this post can get the most views here. I need my Prius Prime driven from Los Angeles, California to Flint, Michigan (or close by place in midwest eg Detroit Chicago we can talk about it) sometime mid February or earlier. Looking for...

Haven't been on this site for a while but figure this is the place to post. So apparently California has the some of the best 'squatters rights" laws in the USA. Why are there no squats in Los Angeles! The city is full of occupiable buildings. I'd like to make a plan to take over a...

Hello everyone! Im new here but have had several people recommend it. Im a musician posted in LA with my fiancee. Looking for a place to rent or squat

Hello peeps. I just got to Los Angeles. I’m broke, and semi homeless. Was hoping to get some advice, tips and help to survive in this city. I’m Kat but I go by Kitty as well. I’m 21, trans female and a lesbian. Hope to make some good cool friends ^_^

Hey everyone, PÖKCHØP here. Just trying to boost this signal! This young man went missing in Los Angeles earlier this month, just after landing in LAX. His name is Cory Cox. He's a 30 yr old white male. Approximately 5'7", 190lbs. He was picked up from the airport by an unknown female, and was...

Hey guys I'm in Covina (LA/SGV area) for the night and I can't find a spot to park overnight anywhere out here, I have to line up at the DMV at 5am so I really dont want to have to travel outside of Covina/West Covina. Anyone know about this area?

Like the title says, my friend owns an empty plot of land (zoned residential) near downtown Los Angeles. He hasn't built anything on it because he doesn't want to gentrify, but he brought up that I could make use of it if I wanted to move there. I can't afford to build a proper house and...

Most people hate mondays. However yesterday I took the opportunity to check out Slab City Library and the Salton Sea. I gotta say the drive was worth it! I just wish i had more time off work. Anyways, back to work!

Hey folks. Well, I’m coming close to the end of my first ever hitching trip. It’s been a hell of a ride; I went up the west coast from Palm Springs through Santa Barbara, SLO, Big Sur, the Bay, Arcata, Coos Bay on the 1 and 101, then up to Portland, back down to Eugene, Roseburg, Dunsmuir, and...

What's up everyone? I'm John. I'm a life long "punk rocker" from LA. For some awful reason I tried it their way and made the realization that I'm just sitting here with my thumb up my ass. So decided that I may as well see what I can with my thumb up my ass. I don't have a vehicle, have no clue...

Like specific spots where a group of people chill all day. All I know about is "the cannon"/south side of Palisades Park in Santa Monica, and Safe Place for Youth in Venice. It's kinda lonely and boring seeing the same mofos every day.

Hi Need some advice on squatting in a REO or Foreclosured property in Los Angeles. Anyone with knowledge?

Hello! I've been reading StP for a while now, but just posting for the first time today! As of right now, my friend Sarah and I are aiming to mostly hitchhike across the country from NYC to Los Angeles, going along the Southernmost parts of the US in mid May. We're inexperienced as hitchhikers...

Here are some pics I took during the past few months. Some are around the Salton Sea while others are at the Lizard Tree Library in Slab City. Oh yeah and three photos from LA because I forgot to take many photos while I was there. Featured in these shots are StP users @Matt Derrick @Shwhiskey...

As some of you know I've been spending the last few months bouncing between Los Angeles and Slab City. The reason being that I've been working in LA as a Postmate bike messenger.

I'm not a fan of Los Angeles. It takes forever to get anywhere, it's hard to find a place to camp, and the people there generally have a bad attitude. No offense to people in LA, maybe it's great if you know people there, but I prefer to bypass that area of the country as fast as possible...
