Norwood Terrace. Barnem and Bailey circus bought those houses for thier midgets to live in but I had a friend who lived there in a small house but not built terribly short the ceilings werent low
Its in NJ. We drove there late on a Friday night about 11:30 or so. We stopped just to take a look. All small houses. I shook my hand in disgust as this seemed to be a waste of time. All of the sudden a chinese or korean midge jumped on my leg and started biting me. I kept beating her over the head with my fist until she finally let go. Then I started chase and saw a bunch of things moving in the woods it was a bunch of midgets dancing naked around a bonfire. I ran back to the car.
I grew up near the one they claim to be in Maryland - we used to take people down there and had them believing they saw midgets, but they were actually only little changing rooms for a public beach that they sat in front of. As far as I know, midgets never lived in the ones in Maryland. They are gone now, tore them down in the 70's to build million dollar beach front homes
I've been to midgetville, it's on mill road I believe? I was chased out by a man in a dark blue pickup truck, so I have no idea if it's safe or not. It's next to rancocas fields.
I find that a fucking repugnant depraved behaviour of people leaving out their old houses to rot on the face of the earth WHAT THE FUCK? fucking life-disrespecting mentality..fuck that shit!
ok can someone PLEASE tell me how to get to get to the midgetvillve in NJ and if its safe to go there because i have been trying to go there for so long now and there is nothing on the internet on how to get there, and this has been the most useful information so far actually
i cant believe people are still so judgemental these days! i have a 2 year old daughter who has dwarfism and if i ever ran into any of you punks talking shit about dwarfs, id punch you right in the face! than stomp all over you!
thers a very similar place like this in mississauga ontario people call it midget town its in a hidden area surrounded by trees do midgets actually live ther because there is a swimming pool and everything the place has cameras and a gate
Where are the Midgets? I heard you are supposed to show up at midnight with a car full of you friends, flashing your lights, honking your horn, pounding on the side of the car, yelling "Come out Midgets!" The papers report that if you do this the locals will box in your vehical with their cars, brandish guns and call the police. You can't believe what you read in the papers.
@crashreboot ohhhh... ive heard about it being a christian summer school for midgets. But i dont think this is the summer school. the summer school is in PA.
@crashreboot did you write weird maryland too? my parents got in for me when i moved from jersey to annapolis. me and a couple friends are planning on going to go to the midgetville in maryland, do you if that one is real or not?
Thats not the real midgetville, i used to live on the next street over from it, Annesly by the bay now occupies the sight, Their were about in all 20 houses and the famous fairview hotel.
one story is that some of the towns were built as homes for the midgets that performed in Barnum and Baileys circus back in the day. But thats just what I have heard...
So can anyone explain the history of these villages? Were they really built for "midgets"? and if so, why do midgets no longer inhabit them and does anyone live in them anymore?
These two are actually in Pennsylvania. There are Midgetvilles, TinyTowns, and Munchkinburgs all over the States, though the NJ one gets most of the press.
there once was a midgetville in vienna virginia, designed for midgets to live in but sadly it got torn down to make more mansions. it was likw a fairy tale village
these are like summer homes and crapy little cottages ive done tree work in a dozen of these little shitty nj places but thats what makes the great nj ...........
there is a midget ville up the street from the new britian dmv, there a re midgets living there but they will chase you out and throw crap out you, our the 8ft tall man with a redbeard will threaten you with a shotgun
yo whoever thinks this is "midgetville' is wrong this was an old trailer park and then it got flooded during the 70s and they took all the people living there and built them new houses and trailer parks off route 72 by chasworth
I agree. It originally had "Short People" by Randy Newman, but the record company objected to my using copyrighted material without permission. I subbed in something I had permission to use that had the right title ("Small Town")...but the wrong mood.
People--if you can think of a good song that fits, let me know!
I like at 2:24 where they built that house around a tree. If anyone says the tree grew through the roof please smack them. It would take 100 years for the tree to become that big. Just smack them.
dude i dont know the 2nd half of this but the first part is definitely midgetville under that parkway spur in NJ right? its like a half circle road with a shit ton of signs before you enter, im pretty sure i saw that red pick up there as well unless this is somewhere completely different
yeah i live like 10 miles from it... its so beat man.. not worth it.. went there with my girl at night and wanted to scare her cuz there were alleged midgets but it was so beat, and everything isnt even that small.. there might be another one though im not sure.. the one i was at is in Bucks County.
It's a seasonal church camp in Chadds Ford, PA. No midgets. sorry. It's called Brandywaine Summit Camp Meeting. There are more pictures on their website, too.
i live in maryland and bought the weird maryland book a few years ago but have heard of this place before that, where is it located because ive really been wanting to go, not to disturb anyone just to visit and know that it exists
I would like to add, "Midgetville" had some of its property knocked down to build the Apartments to the left side of the street. Cannon Apartments bought land, and thats where the old guy said the carnies lived.
Due to the popularity of "Midgetville", the residents have been highly annoyed with unwelcomed visitors.They have "No Trespassing" signs on mostly every post, security cameras, and microphones. The police patrol often as well. I cant tell you how many times we've had the cops come and tell us to go away. You'll be lucky to get passed the first street without having anyone come out and say something to you. Go during the weekdays when residents are ar work.
The old guy I talked to, told me that hes lived here for 30 years. He knows the myth. He told me that this neighborhood has ALWAYS been with normal average people. One year about 20 years ago, a family of carnies moved in, and they were all, midgets. There was always a kid around who was drunk and high, and claimed this to be "Midgetville." For a while, this was a tourist attraction. He man himself said its an urban myth.
This is Midgetville in PA. I live down the road, and everytime I go, theres an old chinese lady who comes out and chases us away with chopsticks. She lives in that white house on the right when you go up the road from the enterance.
omg! sum1 please tell l me where this is. i hear its near the willowbrook mall in north jersey. 1 of my friends said u get shot at if u go there. sum1 tell me i want to knw where it is
there are midgets my friend matt and i went hes 19 and his truck was bambarded by rocks.We drove out as fast as we could and one midget flipped us off.We went to a cop and told him but he said they had all authorty because we were trespassing.
lmao! love the song. i've been here before and seen that one red house..havent seen the rest tho, how do you get to those ?? im trying to understand why there's a frikken tree going through that 1 house..
lol we just went up there yesterday ( across the street from Taylor hospital ) and the lady called the cops... it was disapointing becuase only acouple houses had small doors and windows, i was expecting a lot more
wow those houses with the tress in them is awsome, and when you showed the man standing next to the house was weird for sure. besides those to parts the video was kind of slow.. but still entertaining.
Well, I have to say that Midgetville is kind of a letdown that way. No midgets, and the houses, though small, are well within normal parameters. Zoobieville, the Midgetville on the Delaware border with all the trees growing out of them, is another thing altogether!
