Baron Mojo is taking the coffin motel version of the Squatter Lifestyle. I guess Stoker's in the Barrens is the classic choice in Redmond.

Dingy walls accompany the dim, flickering lighting of the interior hallway of Stoker's Coffin Motel. Ten rows of "rooms" stacked three high line one side of this hallway, giving the distinct impression of a mortuary. The occasional noise seeps out from some of the closed coffins, a snippet of the Seattle Screamers Urban Brawl game being broadcast from an occupant's commlink from one to the sound of crying from another. Nothing about the place inspires hope.

Moto currently has three locations available for use.

The first is Motozone Auto Repair & Body Shop located in Des Moines, Tacoma, near Sea-Tac international airport; a typical legitimate mechanics workshop in a reasonably well to-do area with a B security rating, this brick building is approximately 10m wide and 30m long for a total of 300m2 of workspace, enough for two extra large vehicle bays capable of servicing anything from motorcycles through semi-trailers to ultra-light gliders through small airplanes. This facility houses Moto's aeronautics and automotive workshops, and Moto spends most of his time here either working on new R&D projects of his own doing or doing repair and/or modification work for clients. The facility does not have a lot of creature comforts being a workshop first and a residence last, but Moto prefers sleeping amongst his tools and so has installed a cot and some basic creature comforts in the front office. The building is watched by security cameras and Fly-Spy drones set to alert Moto if anything metahuman-shaped attemts to force its way in, and is secured by biometric maglocks on all external doors. The workshop also houses Moto's Ares Roadmaster, which has served as a second home on many occasions.

In addition to his primary workshop, Moto has also appropriated an abandoned building just south of Fife in Tacoma for his less-than legal activities; hidden away in a forested area near the Puyallup River, this steel structure used to be a warehouse of some kind, and Moto has repurposed the place to serve as a chop shop. He'll perform illegal modifications and cut vehicles down to parts here, as the facility is nearly impossible to see from both land and sea, and even the access road is hard to find unless you know where to look. A few throwback cameras wired up to a low-end commlink and old-fashioned mechanical locks provide security for the facility, but since anything of value is rarely stored here Moto relies more on the obscurity of the location rather than any physical security to keep it relatively safe.

Finally, Moto has set up a bolt-hole in an old, derelict factory on the outskirts of Puyallup City; he's secured an old bomb shelter with a similarly old key-pad maglock, and has gotten rid of a devil rat infestation and the worst of the grime and dirt. It's not much, but just like the warehouse/chop shop it's remote and nothing of value remains in the old factory, so it should be reasonably safe from prying eyes. The walls of the shelter is thick enough to block wireless signals, and this part of Puyallup isn't exactly safe for tourists, so it is purely for emergency use only.

The Count is living in Renton, though not by much.

Located near the tri-point where Renton, Redmond Bellview meet, Chesterfield Oaks is a small apartment complex just south of 90. A 48 unit complex located a few kilometers south of 90, it was built in the late 40's and has been mostly maintained though it is showing it's age. Apartment 1202 is on the bottom flow of a two-story building made of red brick in a block like uninspired design. Two bedrooms, a small kitchen, a living room all decorated in beige paint on the walls and tan carpet, a little worn, on the floor. A basic boring starter apartment, a little past it's prime. The complex is filled with what would once have been described as 'blue-collar' types, with the meta being mostly a human and orc mix. All in all, a boring, unnoticeable hole in the wall.
Down the street about 2 blocks is a Stuffer Shack sharing a corner lot with Honest Wu's Pawn and Loan. Nearby eateries include McHuhes, Noodle Palace, Mogul's a surprisingly good Indian eatery.

Tacoma/Puyallup, Renton, and the Redmond Barrens; not too bad so far, if 5 and 405 is similar in 2075, it should be 30-45min to get from Motozone to Mojo's place...

Need a VTOL, I say.

Housing? Non applicable for Bad Johnny Juju. He's the couch surfer version of the squatter lifestyle, using his charm, connections in the Barrens Awakened community, and some nuyen to make sure he (generally) has a place to sleep at night. He tries hard not to wear out his welcome, and is generally nice and helpful to whoever is putting him up at the moment.

Currently he's crashing on a futon at his drug dealer's place. He provided some astral security for an exchange and earned himself a few doses of bliss and a couple of nights under Adam Smits' roof. He was told no shooting up on the premises, however, so he's already looking to move on.

Smits' place is a typical drug dealer's apartment; a cheap and shoddy building filled with expensive toys paid for in cash. Being a troll, Smit's place is expansive though cluttered with Stuffer Shack boxes and wrappers.  Posters for various classic and current video games, simsense games and AR games line the walls. An avid gamer with plenty of "disposable income," Smits sprang for a massive trideo display set with plenty of gaming mods. The gaming console is, unfortunately, only a few feet away from the futon Johnny's using as a bed. He has a habit of waking Johnny up in the middle of the night with a rousing game of Call of Duty: Black Ops: Urban Warfare XXXVII.

For John, his house is in a more high end location.
 Despite his pirating flair the house is more like a castle,  with access to water and such. Not as big as luxury, but stillpretty big
Concepts are great, but implementation sucks. Why not improve it?

You've got lots of options, then, Trisk.

Auburn is an industrial region full of factories and blue-collar workers, but there are some AA security rated neighbourhoods here (Auburn proper, and Lake Wilderness).
Bellevue is where the cream of the crop lives, with several AAA, AA, and A rated districts, such as Hunt Point, Rosemont Beach, Inglewood, Yarrow Point, and Bellevue proper. Some of these would likely be waterfront properties (but these might require Luxury lifestyle if you ask me)
Downtown is the cultural center, again with plenty of AAA and AA neighbourhoods; Matthews Beach and North Beach seems like credible places for water access.
Everett has an actual ship yard, and Norma Beach or Edmonds should have access to water while being AA rated or above.
Fort Lewis obviously has a significant military presence, so might be out.
Puyallup is land-locked, if you don't count the Puyallup River.
Redmond has access to water, but is a hellhole.
Renton is landlocked.
Snohomish might have access to water for all I know, but it's always been the woodlands of Seattle as far as I can remember.
Tacoma houses the Tacoma docks, and an extensive coastline. Ruston is a AAA rated neighbourhood close to Point Defiance Park, and has a LOT of waterfront properties.
Outremer is a collection of islands, so could potentially serve as your own personal castle ground... :)

Also, remind me not to shack up with Johnny Juju.

I may have space in my coffin for you, if needed.

Lets go with Outremer. Not one of the big islands, but a small one.
