I legit looked into the cost of buying up land in a city ravaged by fire. For about 1/3 of the cost of the average home there, I would have enough plots of land (with working gas, electric, water, and sewer hookups. Only getting ones with recertified hookups doubled the cost) to strong-arm the local council with ~2 people per plot. Sure, then we'd all need homes and stuff, but we can work on that. So we get all the benefits of a recognized City and address, utilities, and work done before, but at a price that would be very affordable for my part of the country.
