When Chiang Kai-shek and the Kuomintang (KMT) arrived with his soldiers and their families, they grew up in villages like these. They weren't very pleasant, but these people had the camaraderie of soldiers' families like themselves. This is well worth seeing. See also 4-4-South Village in Taipei if you can
