Review of Silver City, New Mexico


What Causes the Pollution
Star Rating - 2/3/2007
It seems that the air is very polluted for the population. Does the pollution come from El Paso or is the air as polluted as this site indicates? Is the pollution worse in the winter do to temperature inversion? Thanks for your feedback on this.

Silver City is one of the largest copper mining hubs in the southwest. On your way into Silver from Deming you go through Hurley which has large copper smelters. El Paso is three hours away and given the variations in elevation there's no way pollution could make its way to Silver City from there.
