From the April Time Magazine.
Those looking to buy a town in the United States, and I mean a whole town, have lost out on two of them. But, one still remains.
For a crisp $1.4 million, you can buy Henry River, North Carolina. Then appoint yourself mayor, police chief and tax collector, I suppose. The 72-acre abandoned mill town served as District 12 in the movie "The Hunger Games." Perhaps you can open it as a place for movie and book fans to visit.
You can roam the decrepit streets of the Hob, traverse the area forest, visit Peeta's iconic bakery, or even just charge fans to come see.
ALREADY SOLD
Buford, Wyoming. America's smallest town (pop. 1) now owned by anonymous Vietnamese investor and has a trading post, gas station, post office and its very own ZIP code: 82052. Sold for $900,000.
Scenic, South Dakota. This Badlands area beauty sold last fall to a Filipino church which hasn't announced what it plans to do with it. Once a popular stop for travelers to Rapid City, SD. Sold for $700,000.
