Don’t share location information

This rule is one that new urban explorers don’t really understand.

It’s a reason they can’t find abandoned buildings to explore. Because experienced urban explorers don’t share location information with just anyone. Not even in urbex forums.

It’s something YOU should never do.

You might think it’s ridiculous to not share the location of a place you’ve explored. It is an abandoned building after all, what’s the big deal?

You’d be helping new people wanting to get into urbex find buildings to explore. So why shouldn’t you do it?

The reason you don’t share location information with just anyone is that urban explorers aren’t the only ones that will see and visit that place.

If you openly advertise the address of an abandoned building, you’re inviting just about anyone on the internet to go visit.

Thieves, vandals, arsonists, junkies, drug dealers, and just about anyone else now know the location of a building to do their dirty work out of.

Don’t share location info with just anyone, ever. Keep it to yourself and only share it with close friends and other people you know personally.
