CENTRALIA, Pa
Wow, this is just a fascinating story. Centralia, PA used to be a coal-mining town. Back in 1962, a fire began in a coal vein underneath the town that burns to this day without showing any signs of burning out. As a result, the government used imminent domain laws to buy up the town, move the people out, and raze the buildings. There are fewer than a dozen residents left who stubbornly refuse to move.
