Squatalupe
The town of Guadalupe, Arizona, is adjacent to Tempe, where I spent Thanksgiving. Guadalupe opted out of being incorporated into Tempe, I'm told, because it chose not to have Tempe's taxes foisted on it. The result is a very small town with as many dirt roads as dirt lots, with a sheriff prowling around trying to catch people on the short section of road between Tempe and Phoenix that suddenly drops to a 25 m.p.h. zone.I didn't have my camera with me or I would have captured several instances of residents squatting in dirt lots, staring at the cars going by. To be clear, they weren't defecating in the dirt lots; they were just squatting there.
At a Circle K convenience store I walked into a nearby dirt lot and squatted for about a minute. It was very peaceful. Imagine how relaxed I would be if I did that all day!

"Squatting in Guadalupe..."
Sounds like a viable movie plot if you throw in some hot chicks, gunplay, terrorists, and lots of explosions. : )
