Speaking for the US many populated arid areas are completely unsustainable as population centers (ironically also where most people in the US have been moving for awhile now), especially because water resources haven’t been managed rationally in many arid areas. This story will absolutely be a global one though, see Tehran for one massive example, Lake Mead for another. No water and deadly heat waves are going to make for limitless ghost town tourism attraction opportunities!
The future is bright for abandoned building photography communities!


Bum fuck nowhere might go under because there’s no business there anyway. Vegas is not going anywhere.

Vegas is a destination to its own now. Collapse isn’t happening. Give your head a shake.

It’s an experience now. You can disagree with it, but it is. It hasn’t been just for gambling for a long time.
vegas is declining, it will collapse sooner or later. they are tyring to stave that off with sports stadiums, they dont see the money in gambling anymore.
There’s a tourism decline because of Trump. Long term it’ll be fine.
