A large camp primarily in a wooded area of the inner city, where homeless bums and other outcasts of society set up a camp. These camps can be very elaborate, to say the least. They can have community kitchens, barbers, and other luxuries found in most communities. Junkies, alcoholics, street urchins, and the mentally ill are the primary residents. River bed bottoms, palm groves, and the like are perfect for bum camps. Usually, bums try to set up on public property close to areas where panhandling opportunities are abundant yet still remote enough to avoid the authorities.
