The town with a total population of two well three including the dog comes with just a bit more than six acres of land, a house, three trailers, and a bar called Swett Tavern. Mr. Benson has owned this town since 1998 and wants to sell it so he can travel for his concession business.

Back in the 1940’s the town had a whopping 40 residents but the one thing in this town that has remained constant is the tavern, a place where rough cowboys gather to knock a few drinks back. One person who looked into the town said, “It looks like a good place to be killed.” But hey if you are willing to fork up the cash you can change the town to your own liking!
