Durango liegt am Navajo-Trail, einem alten Weg der Navajo-Indianer (heute Strasse 160). Der Ort gehört zu den, im Zusammenhang mit dem großen Eisenbahnbau entstandenen Städten des Wilden Westens und wurde 1879 gegründet. Schon 2 Jahre später hatte das Städtchen über 2000 Einwohner, 20 Saloons, Kasinos und einen sehr rauhen Lebensstil. An der Hauptstrasse stehen zahlreiche renovierte viktorianische Häuser, die sehr schöne, restaurierte Altstadt mit Wildwest-Charakter lädt zum Bummeln ein. An der Ecke der 7th Street steht noch das 1887 erbaute Strater-Hotel, damals ein Luxushotel. An der 9th Street wurde 1881 ein gewisser Henry Moorman gelyncht.

  • I wish I can just visit this city at least for a few days. Smell the open mountain air...(sigh)...someday. I guess.

  • I lived there for 7 years 5 years for college! between 2000-2007

  • @Lavern4101

    Yeah, i'm just kind of a city dwellar...

  • @ludehead Small towns are not for everyone. I grew up in one in Texas and as a kid I didnt like it. But now that I'm older I learned to appreciate them much more. Of course I live in a city so i only visit them but I find small towns to be very charming especially ones as gorgeous as Durango. But I see how someone could go crazy being bored in one.

    I agree...I lived in Durango for a while and there is absolutely NOTHING to do. There's only so much outdoorsy stuff you can do. Hell, you can't even catch a movie sometimes, not to mention you have to be quite wealthy to have ant kind of quality of life

  • @MrDtown15 Nothing to do? The Colorado rockies is like one gigantic playground, there's a shitload to do. Plus it's absolutely gorgeous. You sound like you might be just an angry guy. Of course I have never lived there so I can't say for sure. But I doubt it's as horrible as you say it is.

  • I used to live in Durango. I miss it.

  • @JoeyJoeJoeJrShabadue Because it has more idiots than I have ever seen in my life. It has a horrible drug rate. Everyone here drinks and there is nothing to do.

  • @MrDtown15 Why?

  • I live here and I have to say, worst place to live ever. No joke
