I couldn't find sources to confirm this meets WP:NPLACE / WP:GNG. Boleyn (talk) 16:50, 8 July 2024 (UTC)

• Keep: Populated & legally recognized places presumed to be notable; don't see any reason this should be not legally recognized given the significant number of people who (from the photo) appear to be living in it. Article is mostly original research but contains useful information. If you really want proof it exists this discusses a wildfire happening there. Mrfoogles (talk) 17:00, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
