Many people have tried over the years. But only those that play nice with tyrants are allowed to survive. Hell even entire nations who did not bend to the wills of their colonial masters of yesteryear have been meddled with. See the assassination of Thomas Sankara (a democratically-elected president) as example of the dozens and dozens of US/Europe-powered coups d'État of the last decades.
Autonomous communes, whether squats or private property, have tried to declare their independence for centuries. The truth is they've been either assimilated or destroyed by Nation States. There's a very nice/powerful movie called La Cecilia about that.
