Description:

• PERMANENTLY CLOSED •
Located in California and just 3 miles from the Nevada boarder, Nipton, CA has a ton of history for a population of 15-20. It was first founded in 1905 as a railroad town, called the most energy independent town in America by "The New York Times," and was once owned by a cannabis company who rebranded the town "Magical Nipton." Most recently, the town was sold again in April 2022 for $2.75M to a group from Las Vegas. Looks like whatever happens in Nipton will stay in Nipton. Note, some of the unique sculptures (like the shopping cart sculpture above) are on private property, so please get permission before entering.
