The Filipino Cemetery Town With a (Living) Population of 10,000
http://www.cracked.com/





Barring the demographics of thrill-seeking stoners, out-of-the-closet necrophiliacs, and ghosts of the damned who read Cracked, none of you have ever looked around a graveyard and wondered aloud, "Gee whiz, I could really see myself putting down roots here."

Sadly, the 10,000-plus residents of Manila's North Cemetery don't really have any other options.



At least they're not living in a crematorium.

Because of overcrowding in the slums of the Filipino capital, entire families attempt to carve out living space in any crypt or mausoleum that they can jam themselves into. They've turned this cemetery into a village, complete with restaurants and shops. A few well-placed bribes even score residents some electricity.

The cemetery's economy makes use of its environs, with residents paid to maintain tombs and children working as pallbearers for a pittance. But Manila isn't the only city where people live among the dead.



Yep, that's a mausoleum.

And this is when a photographer said, "Here, hold this. It'll look creepy and make an awesome picture."
