I am the author of the original material that was added January 26, 2006 from IP address 68.185.204.165. My sources are first-hand knowledge as I grew up and lived in this town for 18 years before leaving to attend university, as well as my professional qualifications as a published geographer. My professional credentials are:
- Masters of Science, Applied Geography, University of North Texas, Denton TX, 2009
- Bachelors of Science, Geography, University of Alaska Fairbanks, Fairbanks AK, 1995
- Thoreau High School, Diploma, Thoreau NM, 1991
Please do take this into consideration before removing content. Before I added the descriptive geography, this article was nothing more than a regurgitation of data mined from the US Census Bureau and already available from the US Census Bureau website. I do believe that adding non-census data such as historical, social, climatological, and historical context makes this article more suitable for an encyclopedia as well as more useful and relevant to the user. Thank you. Mike5816 (talk) 13:33, 9 July 2010 (UTC)
