Mulege industry


Can anyone tell me about the industrial area south of Mulege? What's the business, and who owns/operates it?

It's about a kilometre (1/2 mile) south of the Pemex. I can see it on Google maps.

Nuevo Mulege


You're probably looking at the new housing development and schools. There are also a few storage facilities in the region.

The houses are a government development where they got some money for flood relief so they set out bids and built these little cracker boxes and thought that people would flock to move in. They have one bedroom (almost) a bathroom and a small kitchen living area.

We have another one just south of the Technological College in Santa Rosalia.

It is a government sponsored program, to move people that have been in the flood area of Mulege, to new housing.
They were also supposed to give up their old flooded land and house.

Occupy Madison Build hoping to create cluster of $5,000 tiny houses for homeless

Sites of tiny houses have already been built in Washington and Oregon

By Associated Press

PUBLISHED: 08:17 GMT, 26 February 2014 | UPDATED: 13:19 GMT, 26 February 2014

They have traditionally attracted those planning on downsizing or looking to simplify their lives for financial or environmental reasons.

But there is now another group of people benefiting from the growing small-dwelling movement - the homeless.

Efforts to construct the compact buildings are growing across the U.S. because they are cheaper than a traditional large-scale shelter, help the recipients socially because they are built in communal settings and are environmentally friendly due to their size.

'You're out of the elements, you've got your own bed, you've got your own place to call your own,' said Harold 'Hap' Morgan, who is without a permanent home in Madison. 'It gives you a little bit of self-pride: This is my own house.'

Mr Morgan is in line for a 99-square-foot house built through the non-profit Occupy Madison Build, or OM Build, run by former organizers with the Occupy movement. The group, in Wisconsin, hopes to create a cluster of tiny houses like those in Olympia, Washington, and Eugene and Portland, Oregon.

Many have been built with donated materials and volunteer labor, sometimes from the people who will live in them. Most require residents to behave appropriately, avoid drugs and alcohol and help maintain the properties.


The group has already built one house in Wisconsin that is occupied by a couple and parked on the street. A volunteer moves it every 24 or 48 hours as required by city ordinances.

The house, which cost about $5,000, fits a double bed with overhead storage, a small table and a small room with a compostable toilet. There's no plumbing or electricity, but the home is insulated and has a propane heater to get the residents through the harsh Wisconsin winters.

Eventually, organizers want to add solar panels.

If this post by Robert Durrell finds its way to Off Topic where it belongs, I have a lot to say about it. In my opinion though, here it is a hijack from the Mulege govt. relocation project topic.

Are you saying that, on the "how's the weather in your neck of the woods?" thread, all the Nomads that posted weather conditions in Cardif, Louisiana, Valley Center, Aptos, San Marcos, Oakland, Topaz Lake, Escondido, Oceanside, Yuma and San Diego should have started a new thread on the OT? Lighten up Tony.

No, Bob, but I did not post on that string.Weather was the original topic in that thread. It is up to Doug if he wants that to stay put. It is not my intention to get heavy or take DK's place as the forum police.

I have looked into the Tiny House movement, and what is possible in Oregon and Washington is not possible in California. As I said, I have a lot to contribute to the that topic but did not want to continue the hijack the topic (regarding Mulege)of this thread.

If you move it to Off Topic, I will continue the conversation, in a friendly manner, in a way that I think you will find interesting.

This is really a conversation about the homeless in The U.S. There is a good string started about that topic in OT. As long as conversations are civil there, I will jump in if I have something to contribute, and I have in that topic. Here in the main forum I will jump in to be helpful if it is something I know about. As you know, it is usually more civil here on the main forum.
