Jodi Jill – Wiki, Bio, Age, Wife, Net Worth

The storage unit would remain Jill and her family’s residence for the next 13 years, during which time her parents had three more children.

A feature article about Jill in Marie Claire described the family’s “bizarre” living arrangement:

With wood pilfered from construction sites, (Jill’s father) built a sleeping loft. For a toilet, everyone used the same bucket, emptied only once a day in a nearby ditch; to bathe, they filled another bucket from a spigot in the parking lot. A propane heater kept the temperature just above freezing.

Jill is the author of Tours for Free California and Tours for Free: Colorado. In 2004, Los Angeles Magazine called Tours for Free California the year’s “Best Offbeat Guide to L.A.”

Jill was born in Albert Lea, Minnesota. In 1980, when she was nine years old, she, her parents, and her younger sister relocated to Loveland, Colorado, where the family moved into a 10-by-20-foot storage unit at Loveland Self Storage. Because the facility barred people from living in the units, Jill’s parents avoided suspicion by refusing to let the children out during the day, even to attend school, and forbade them from speaking to people outside the family. Neither Jill nor her siblings were ever enrolled in school.

Jodi Jill (born January 29, 1971) is an author best known for having been raised in a public storage facility.
