If reports are to be believed, a US billionaire has recently bought a small town in Texas. The town, which is named Mustang, has a population of just about two dozen people. &nbsp;

Although the estimated price for the town is unclear, it was put up for sale in 2017 for $4 million. &nbsp;

US billionaire Mark Cuban, who is also Dallas Mavericks owner, said he has bought the town to help a friend. &nbsp;

“I don’t know what, if anything, I will do with it,” the billionaire told the Dallas Morning News. &nbsp;

The town is roughly spread in 77 acres and is about an hour’s distance away from Dallas. &nbsp;

Mustang features several amenities like a closed down strip club. It also has a neighbourhood alligator, which resides in a pond. &nbsp;

In 2008, someone was killed at the strip club, which is known as Whispers. Since then, the club has been closed, as per the Houston Chronicle. &nbsp;

In a nutshell, Mustang is actually a ghost town. The town was founded in 1970s and used to thrive by selling alcohol while most of Navarro County, Texas, had restricted its sale. &nbsp;
