We may all find ourselves enticed to live off the grid and lead sustainable lives. You might think, “No harm, no foul.” However, in many states, it is illegal to live off the grid!
How can it be illegal to live independent from electricity, plumbing, and farming?! Well, there are many reasons some states choose to make it illegal. The reasons will shock you.
However, for many of these survivalists, living off the grid is part of daily life. If you're seriously considering to unplug, then think about the risk of becoming an outlaw if you do so.
Luckily just by knowing your rights, you'll be able to unplug where it's legal.

Land of the free?? Whoever told you that is your enemy..
No it doesn’t
No, Less Government and More Freedom
Live off the grid on your own property? Nope, still on the grid. Live off the grid as a squatter, still on the grid. Unless you live up with the polar bears and penguins, you will never be ‘off the grid’.
Being an outlaw isn’t a bad thing. Even being a criminal isn’t ALWAYS a bad thing.
Thats the damn truth
No makes them smart!
Just another way to keep control over the people. “FREE” is a relative term in the U.S.
A war vet in Alabama was threatened with jail time. It was reported on news 19
There nothing wrong with livening off the Grid if it your land your not breaking no dam laws they are.
No
This is referring to being as far off the grid as possible for most people. No it doesn’t. An I am very into off grid survival.
Hell no
Nah….
‘Society’ looks suspect at anyone who wishes to live off grid. The government doesn’t like it cause you’re out of their control. Go for it.
I got a ticket for habitation of a national forest years ago. I camped for 4 months.
Government wants money. That’s all there is to it. Money, and a leash on you. I’m not a tinfoil hat kind of guy, but I know a business when I see one. X amount of dollars per capita.. Tracking behavior through different censuses. Taxing utilities and common goods. It’s basically their way of telling us we are their pets because they wear the suits and get fat behind desks. I’ll take the wilderness, they can keep their heart diseases, unhappy spouses, and deteriorating families. Suits are scum.
judging by the name of the group that posted this on FB, We all know that none of us will ever think off grid is illegal/
Absolutely not
There is a case in Huntsville AL where the city is still going after a guy.
I think it would be awesome to live off the grid when times come to that but for now ill take things for granted lol But i tell you my family will do quite well living off the grid with out any power tools but just off the land
Freedom is an illusion.
There was one in Florida that had his property condemned because he was living off grid.
It’s true….boycott all fruit and vegetables from California , to stop this insanity .
totally agree with Mark Greer 100%
Well with This new President, we ALL will likely be living off grid. I did, with my five kids, for more than six years. Raised goats, a huge garden, chickens and rabbits.
It doesn’t make you an outlaw! However, to society it makes you far less controllable, they can’t force all of societies constraints, and b.s. on you. And in this way those less connected are seen as a problem.

NO IT DOSE NOT
no
Here in upstate NY even with solar panels they won’t let you unhook from the grid, we were also toss if the power was out the solar panels wouldn’t work because they need to be hookup up to the grid. Wtf is the point then? It’s all nonsense
No! Makes them resourceful.
It means no more money for small gov and utility corporations
Why
When using hook up to the grid wait one year and get a battery back up system installed with a switch to convert over if the power goes out. Or just say screw them and have the laws changed for off grid power
Any “state” that bans living off the grid is illegal and doesn’t understand the freedom of the United States constitution.
No, we were heading towards having to live off the grid with the$#%&!@*Obama running us into the ground and with terrorists threatening our power grid. Now with a real president it will just be by choice only.
All the jobs that have gone under Clinton/Bush/Obama this is a terrible economy. One of the biggest reasons I want to be off grid.
The establishment corruption can’t control you if you’re not on the grid. It’s all about control.
Same in the sunshine state Fl.
Of course not. I think it makes them smart.
I don’t see how it’s any of the state’s fkn business.
You’ll be singing a different tune real soon. You think Trump is your savior…I feel sorry for you. Like moths to a flame.
so its illegal to live off the grid which hurts no one but god for bid we should have gun control…..i dont get it
Trump ain’t my savior but he is a hundred times better than the communist prick Obama, or Hillary, two saul alinsky communists.
f**k all you lib tards, Trump is already making America great. Get over it you crybabies.
Probably.. if the government can’t get any funds than I’d say so.
Its called taxes taxes and more. Country screw you to your last breath of life.
Keep your property taxes current and what can they really do?
Rob Scott Hello! Obama is over in January…living under a rock?
