"A small little town on the eastern plains"

Genoa is a small town of just 139 residents on the eastern plains. While there are no amenities or really anything to do there is a quirky little attraction called The Wonder Tower. This strange museum/tower reaches six stories high and claims you'll be able to see six states away. The museum has all kinds of bizarre items in it, such as a stuffed two-headed calf. Admission is only a dollar and if you can guess 10 odd items the owner shows you, you can earn your dollar back.

Outside of The Wonder Tower there really isn't much to see or do in Genoa. The most common industry is retail, followed by construction. Since there are no real stores to work in here, residents must travel to Limon for employment, which is only about 12 minutes away. The median household income in Genoa is $32,042 while you can get a median priced home for just $73,036. Over 89% of the population is white and 39% of the population live below the poverty rate.
Pros
  • cheap homes
Cons
  • no amenities
