I currently live in Dodge City, Kansas , which was once called "The Wickedest City in the West" or "Hell on the Plains". Wyatt Earp lived here briefly, and it was a proverbial "Wild West" town with gambling, prostitutes, and salloon fights. The TV show Gunsmoke was set in Dodge City, but of course, was filmed in California, not here.

Now, Dodge is mostly focused on agriculture and meat packing. Part of the original Front street burned down in the 1880s, and the rest was torn down for "urban renewal" in the 1960s. So, all we have is a replica at Boot Hill that leans towards the tourist trap-y side. Still, many people in town are trying to improve things and promote the interesting history here.
