There's a remote village in Poland where all six thousand of its inhabitants are technically neighbors as they collectively live on the same road.
Nestled just a few kilometers from the hustle and bustle of one of Poland's major historical cities, Kraków, lies a remote village that has a rather unique set up.
Taking neighbourly love to the extreme, Sułoszowa has a population of about 6,000 residents, who all live on the same central street.
Aerial footage or a birds eye view of the street shows just how bizarre the village is positioned, with a perfectly straight main road lined aligned with residential homes and vast green space all around.

There are no other roads branching off or junctions to turn off of, or seemingly even do a u-turn, as the long residential street stretches nine kilometers with its entire existence revolving around the singular road.
The main road is the lifeblood of the town - and the only source of activity - with everything from residential homes to businesses, shops and farmland, sitting on the street.
Each home also has its own long and narrow segment of land to use for gardening and agriculture, stretching far into the distance and creating an idyllic scenery of intricate patchwork.
The village attracts global attention for its stunning scenery and bizarre layout, earning itself the nickname 'Little Tuscany', according to The Daily Express.
Gmina Sułoszowa council member, Katarzyna Bieda, told The Daily Express: "Sułoszowa is immersed in nature with lots of forests and fields. These fields have made us famous all across the world thanks to drone pictures in which our fields surrounding the main street look a little bit like a leaf."
The council expert also revealed why the street was built that way.
"The one street thing comes from the past, when it was easier for people to live on one street, mostly because of road communication." she said.
Another villager, a local shop owner, told MailOnline in 2023 that the village shares a 'good sense of community', enjoying potato and strawberry days where the residents gather, taste new food and play music.
The shop owner added: "But people like to gossip. And everyone knows everyone."
According to Statistics Poland, 5,819 people lived along the village's linear road in 2017 and despite appearing cut-off from other residential areas, Ms Bieda says it attracts tourists and has plenty to offer visitors.
She said: "Every year, especially in spring and summer a lot of tourists visit our village because of the local landscape and also because of tourist attractions such as the Pieskowa Skała castle or our famous rock called Maczuga Herkulesa [Bludgeon of Hercules]."
If you're keen on the idea of having 6,000 neighbors, houses in the village aren't exactly cheap either as the Daily Express reported two houses went up for sale for £335,200 ($417,767).
At least you'd never run out of sugar, though.
