Grim-looking abandoned community for sale in South Dakota

Swett is a beautifully-named town in South Dakota, and all of it is yours for $250,000. The community is completely abandoned, according to Fortune, and comes complete with a bar, a museum, and a haunted house. It sounds like the bar is open, though, serving that corner of the state's passers' by.

To do it up in the hopes of finding offers, the bank replaced a bullet-riddled sign and removed some "rotting" mobile homes in the locale.

Montgomery says that the original listing garnered a lot of attention. She received offers from production companies considering reality shows, people who wanted to be their own mayor, and even one man from Nebraska who wanted to fill the town with 2,000 Russian women and 600 convicted male felons. For whatever reason the property was never sold, but Montgomery remains hopeful that the new listing, new price, and newly cleaned up town will encourage viable offers.

If you would like to own and/or live in Swett, contact realtor Stacie Montgomery in Rapid City, Nebraska.
