Walah, Saluran Air di Las Vegas Dihuni 700 Orang
Siapa bilang permukiman liar dengan menempati fasilitas umum hanya ada di negara kita. Di Negeri Adidaya alias Amerika Serikat pun ternyata banyak warga yang memanfaatkan fasilitas publik sebagai tempat tinggal. Bahkan, di saluran air di Kota Judi Las Vegas pun ternyata dihuni sedikitnya 700 orang. Waduh!
Kalau saja bukan karena kerat plastik yang dipasang di bawah tempat tidur dan lemari, kamar yang ditempati Steven dan Kathryn akan terlihat seperti ruang bawah tanah apartemen kumuh. Kerat bekas botol minuman itu mereka pasangi untuk mengantisipasi terjadinya genangan air yang kemungkinan akan membanjiri ‘kamar’ mereka itu. Sebab, mereka tinggal di gorong-gorong saluran air.
Untungnya, seperti dilansir BoGoBoo.com, selama hampir dua tahun mereka tinggal di sana, tidak pernah terjadi hujan di Las Vegas. Selain memiliki sejumlah peralatan rumah tangga, mereka juga memiliki dapur darurat dan kamar mandi yang terbuat dari sebuah dispenser.
Lalu apa pekerjaan mereka? Karena hidup di wilayah pusat judi, tentu saja pekerjaan mereka dengan memanfaatkan potensi tersebut. Steven dan Kathryn akan mengenakan pakaian terbaik mereka saat ‘bekerja’. Mereka biasanya menunggu sisa-sisa uang yang dihamburkan para penjudi di kasino.
Dengan rajin mereka selalu memeriksa koin dari mesin slot. Hasilnya, rata-rata mereka bisa mengumpulkan US$ 20 (Rp 190 ribu) dalam semalam. Bahkan, Steven pernah mengumpulkan US$ 997 (Rp 9,5 juta) dari sebuah mesin judi dalam semalam.
Yang mencengangkan, ternyata bukan hanya mereka satu-satunya penghuni ‘apartemen’ di sana. Sebab, ada sedikitnya 700 orang lagi yang tinggal di perut bumi ‘Kota Dosa’ itu.
Mereka telah membentuk komunitas yang dipersatukan oleh sekumpulan para pembuat grafiti yang menjadikan gorong-gorong itu sebagai galeri seni mereka. Kekhawatiran terjadinya banjir memang kerap menghantui mereka. Sebab, banjir telah menewaskan 20 penghuni di sana selama dua dekade terakhir.
Laba-laba hitam, tikus, dan nyamuk tentu saja menjadi sahabat sehari-hari mereka. “Ini jauh lebih keren daripada tinggal di jalanan. Kami mendapat udara yang cukup dan polisi tidak benar-benar mengganggu Anda. Di sini sungguh tenang dan semua orang saling membantu,” kata seorang penghuni gorong-gorong itu.
