Tuscarora, Nevada...classified as a ghost town although there are a few people still living there. It's most productive years were from 1870 to 1890 when its mines produced $40,000,000 in silver. The town's population was about four thousand people, split almost equally between whites and Chinese. The Chinese came to build the railroad and stayed to operate opium dens, brothels and gambling houses.
It now inhabits a hardy few even through the winter months and is, in all sense of the word, colorful . . . to say the least.
