abandoned land/unoccupied land (357)
Abandoned land refers to real property, such as plots of vacant land, buildings, or other structures, whose owners have relinquished ownership rights. This can happen either voluntarily, through explicit statements, or involuntarily, through extended lack of use, failure to pay property taxes, or other obligations of property ownership as determined by state law. Unoccupied land refers to land that is undeveloped, unused, and has no structures or improvements built on it1. It is essentially land that is not currently being used or inhabited by people. French: terres abandonnées/terres vacantes Spanish: tierras abandonadas/terrenos baldíos Arabic: الأرض المهجورة / الأرض الشاغرة Russian: пустующая земля/незанятая земля Chinese: 被遗弃的土地/未占用的土地 AGROVOC: abandoned land
