Hey @Alaskan ..........I may be moving up there..........at least they wont be doing anything soon up there........no roads no water lines no electricity......depending on where you live..............

Ummm actually I think the bigger thing there is how much land in Ak is owned by the govt in the form of national forests/parks/wilderness/etc. "held for the common good and use of the people" except that the chances of "98% of the people ever getting up there to use it is pretty much non existent...

Life is about changes and nothing remains the same.....many want to use the, for the "greater good", but the definition continues to evolve with the passing of each gerneration. As the citizenship grows and diversifies there will be even more drift and changes. As we age and others of the same generation passes on the numbers shrink in support of standing issues and us that are left, are at the mercy of those in-charge of the "new direction"....those that stand in the way, just get crushed by the "progress".....

That kind of thing is why my neighbor and I went to a lot of effort to buy the 5 acres that separate our places. It was primarily to keep anyone else from buying and building on it.

Your my hero. Hope it stays that way for a long time.

My neighbor still owns about 65 acres around us. Our house and property(9.5 acres) was his parent's place. He grew up there. He loves being in the country but his wife hates it so that's why they are not the ones living in our place. We know that none of his kids want to be out in the country either. We hope one day we can at least buy a few more acres from him so no one can build near us.

Save up, buy the whole place

Or you can buy it and we will "watch" it for you since you don't live in NY.

Hey RA, I hope you've let the owner (or owner's offspring), know that you'd really like to buy more acreage to add to what you have. In many places, you can only subdivide a certain number of times, and many times have to wait a number of years between each subdivision... That being the case, having a piece subdivided out now for you by the owner BEFORE the present owner dies & probate and the infighting starts, could allow you to actually achieve your goal. I hope you're successful.
