Living in a hamlet or small town often evokes a charming and intimate atmosphere. In such places, nearly everyone knows each other, and casual greetings by first names are the norm. There’s typically a local gathering spot, like a neighborhood bar, where residents come together, and essential services such as a post office, funeral home, and a few shops contribute to the community fabric.
The appeal lies in fostering a sense of camaraderie and closeness among residents. While this lifestyle isn’t suited for everyone, many find comfort and satisfaction in being part of a tight-knit community rather than living in isolation.
It’s intriguing to ponder how many people would opt to reside in a community where every resident lives along the same street. Yet, this is precisely the reality for the inhabitants of a European town that recently garnered attention on Twitter due to an aerial photograph.
Remarkably, all 6,000 residents of Suoszowa, a small town in southern Poland, call a single nine-kilometer street home. Referred to as “Little Tuscany” because of its layout, the community boasted 5,819 residents as of 2017, according to CSO Poland.
Each residence along this unique street is accompanied by an extensive stretch of land, utilized by residents for various purposes such as farming and housing animals.
