There is a fence around the graves. There is a ditch by the side of the road and a hill, so there is no easy access. The gravestones are leaning and off their bottoms.

It becomes hard to tell if a cemetery is really abandoned. Many cemeteries have some stones in a state of disrepair. Generally if an area is mowed, not overgrown, it can be considered maintained. So many of the stones in this case are off their base it is hard to say it is maintained. It is in the trees, but not overgrown with weeds, in this sense it is maintained.

The houses look a lot newer than the graves, so it is hard to say what relationship they have with them.
