The Burnt Town is a small unnamed town on the Exclusion Zone Border, at the southern edge of Louisville. It burned down before the Knox Event, and nobody knows whether the fire was set on purpose or came from some disaster.
The town is centered on South Park Road. The military fence runs straight through it, splitting the streets in half. A military tower stands inside the border line, overlooking the charred blocks.
Most of the town is ash and ruins. A police station, a pharmacy, a library, a church, a laundromat, bakeries and restaurants still stand among the burnt lots. The real prize is the military tower, which can hold firearms. Survivors heading north toward Louisville often pass this way, since it sits right on the line between the Exclusion Zone and the city.

Possible Loot Items in Burnt Town
The military tower is the building worth the trip. It holds a small amount of office items and can hold firearms. The police station is the next stop for weapons and police gear. The pharmacy is worth a look for medicine. The bakeries and restaurants may still give kitchen tools and some food. Most of the town was gutted by the fire, so the standing buildings carry the whole value of a visit.

Surviving in Burnt Town
The border fence is the defining feature here. Crossings along it draw large crowds of zombies, so the approach needs care. The burnt ground gives long sight lines, which helps spot zombies early.
The town works best as a stop for guns on the way into Louisville. Once the tower is looted, survivors usually move north into the city or back south toward Valley Station.
