Displaced Amerindian family, no abode yet

Beyond the ratepayers boundary so no tarsealed roads here

All activity is carried out on the street

The roads become drains

Life is a hill, the paths are drains for the rains too

All waters & sewerage drain to the downhill ""lake""

The community soccer facility has to be in the only open space
