Eviction From A One-Company Town Faces Residents
In National City Illinois a landlord that owns all housing has ordered residents to move within 30 days after approving a nude cabaret license. The village founded by the St. Louis Stockyards Co is shrinking as tenants depart leaving two dozen homes and trailers. Elderly residents pay low rents a 81 year old says nearby town costs are higher. The town risks dissolution without residents as stockyard fortunes decline.
