Haha. Just when you think you’d hit rock bottom in Price, there’s Wellington!

I guessed Eureka, but I don't think it makes it over the 1000 people mark....

Aneth in San Juan County.

Median household income in Aneth is $31,500, Halchita is less than half that.

Is Halchita the south part of Mexican Har right along the San Juan River?

Bullrider

Mexican Hat is right on the river. Halchita is 3 miles to the Southwest.
