Wasteland Gypsy Village

The  settlement is unmarked on the map and exists just North of the Jalbert Brothers Waste Disposal. There are four shack buildings in total, three of which can be entered.


 * It's on a straight line between Arefu (to the east) and Rockbreaker's Last Gas (to the west).

Inhabitants
A band of four hostile Ghoul Wastelanders will attack you as you enter this shantytown; killing them seems to be the only option. It seems that this was once a settlement that was either overrun by a band of evil Ghoul Wastelanders or perhaps the denizens themselves turned into ghouls, as the shacks are located within close proximity to Jalbert Brothers Waste Disposal. One shack shows signs of a struggle, however, with a pile of skeletal remains behind a barricade of tables. It may, however, be a group of ghouls who set up shelter so they wouldn't be discriminated from humans.

There seems to be no significance of the Abandoned Shacks to the main story or any of the side quests. There is, however, a large amount of ammo and some nice loot at this location. Although, it is possible that this is the location in which Billy Creel rescued Maggie from the raiders.

Notable Loot
Northern enterable shack:
 * Tales of a Junktown Jerky Vendor book in the abandoned shack with a hostile Ghoul Wastelander in it.
 * Stealth Boy on the same table as Tales of a Junktown Jerky Vendor.

Center enterable shack:
 * Tumblers Today outside, in a tipped-over fridge. To the left around the shack, facing the door.
 * Combat Shotgun inside the shack with shotgun shells

Southeastern enterable shack (with skeletons):
 * Duck and Cover! book in the abandoned shack with pile of skeletal remains next to the Mini Nuke.
 * Mini Nuke in the abandoned shack with the pile of skeletal remains near an average-level locked ammunition container.
 * Combat Shotgun in the same shack where you get the Mini Nuke, Laser Rifle and Duck and Cover!. It is on the floor right in front of you when you enter.
 * AER9 Laser Rifle behind the overturned tables; poor condition though.
 * A lot of ammo boxes and components in and around the shacks.

Glitches

 * Sometimes the Ghoul in the largest shack will not appear but will spawn when something is moved or picked up.
