Nestled in Fall River county near the Black Hills in South Dakota is Vivos xPoint, the world’s largest doomsday survival community comprised of individual bunkers for 575 families and a total population of 5,000. Simply put, the company converted an old army munitions depot used between 1942-1967 into this community of concrete bunkers that can endure a 500,000-pound internal blast. Residents get their fresh water from two wells, stored in reinforced concrete tanks.
Residents can opt for geothermal heating, solar or wind to provide backup power for a generator, complete with a nuclear, biological, and chemical (NBC) air filtration system. Eventually, the community will have a general store, shooting range, hydroponic gardens, medical clinic, horse stables, classroom, and even a members-only restaurant. How much does it cost to live here? A somewhat reasonable one-time cost of $35,000 – $45,000 USD as well as a $1,000 annual ground rent fee per bunker.
