A town has gone viral after people saw aerial images of it, showing that - bizarrely - all of the houses are only on one street.

Getting along with your neighbors isn't always a given, especially as people move in and out - you never know who'll move in on your road next.

While most people don't have too many dramas with the others that live on their street, if you get a bad neighbor it can really ruin how much you like living in your area.

So imagine what that would be like if your entire town lived on one street. Well, that's exactly what it's like in the village of Sułoszowa in Poland.

No, your eyes are not deceiving you - that is one massive row of houses with a whole lot of not much else surrounding them.

All 6,000 residents of Sułoszowa live on the same street and, apparently, seem to love their very unusual town. Those huge fields to the back of their houses may have something to do with it, if I were to hazard a guess.

Dubbed 'Little Tuscany' due to its layout, Sułoszowa lies around 29km (18 miles) north-west of Kraków along one 9km (5.6 mile) road.

The area housed a population of 5,819 in 2017 according to CSO Poland, and some have spoken out since aerial images of Sułoszowa went viral to espouse how much they adore living there.

One resident wrote: "I wouldn't trade this place for anything else. It has its own charm and atmosphere. As the saying goes, there's something about it."

Someone else commented on the beauty of the aerial image, adding: "The whole place looks the same: there is a house and then a strip of field, hence the beauty of the photos. One has grain, the other has rapeseed, and the third has something else. The colors look beautiful from above."

One Reddit user confirmed that the strips of farmland behind the homes did apparently belong to each house, commenting: "I just showed this to my Polish friend and he said yes!

"Each house has that strip of land to do whatever on, hence different colours and they are using the land for different purposes. Some grow crops on it, others have animals, some just leave it. I said I didn’t believe him but he says it’s true."

With that much land apparently coming with the house, we have a sudden urge to move to Sułoszowa. However, on hindsight, it would be a bit of a pain collecting any parcels that had been "left with a neighbor"...
