BOCA CHICA, TXAccusing the billionaire tech mogul of dragging down property values, neighbors of Elon Musk told reporters Thursday they were fed up with his eyesore yard covered in broken-down Cybertrucks. I dont know if the guy who lives there is sick or has fallen on hard times or what, but Im sorrythat yard looks like absolute shit, said Alaina Barett, who was one of several neighbors who had called 311 in response to the mess strewn over Musks front lawn, complaining that the ramshackle Tesla trucks were a public health hazard due to the multiple families of rats, opossums, and hornets that had taken up residence inside the vehicles. You can tell those things havent run in a very, very, very long time. Occasionally youll see him out in the yard trying to work on one, but most of the time it just starts sparking. I dont understand why he doesnt just haul all that junk away. Theyve got to be worth at least something at the scrapyard. At press time, Musk had been fined $250 by his neighborhoods HOA.

(34,317 posts)It's on a sandbar. Not much grows there. SpaceX bought the home for around $44,000 a few years ago. This is his legal residence in Texas. Although there are few homes in the area, these belonged to remote fisherman. There is nothing there. It's in the middle of nowhere.
