In the New York life underground in railway tunnels that are not used. The number of homeless people in New York increases every year and is probably over 100,000. However, few people have heard of “the mole people” – a group of about 5,000 people who live underground in railway tunnels that are not used. Some of these people have lived underground for over twenty years. They don’t like the name ‘mole people’.

Life underground is not easy, and the inhabitants of the tunnels are proud that they are self-sufficient. They don’t beg for money, but go above ground to make a living. They collect tins in the street and take them to a recycling plant in exchange for a few dollars. They help clean the stairs of apartment buildings. Some collect and sell second-hand books.

Unfortunately the city council wants to develop the public transport system and they are planning to move the people out of the tunnels. It is there possible that they will be truly ‘homeless’ again.
