Is it true that Colby is the exception? I have read on these forums that Colby is actually growing and thriving. How can that be when it appears that
the other surrounding rural towns are slowly declining?

How can these rural towns possibly survive much longer, and what will become of the land in these towns? Will they just be abandoned in the future
and becoming ghost towns?

Herndon?
Bird City?
Brewster?
McDonald?
Hoxie?
Logan?

Thanks

Due to very large farm and ranch operations?

This does conflict with the median household income numbers for Cheyenne county, though.

Old family wealth from third and fourth generation homesteaders for the most part. You won't see it on display.
