About Star City
Once a boom town built around mining in what is now Pershing County, Nevada, Star City operated within the Star Mining District before eventually being abandoned. Today it stands as a ghost town, a remnant of a bygone era of western extraction and settlement.
Visitors drawn to Nevada's ghost towns will find Star City a sparse but evocative destination. The facts on record are limited, so prospective visitors should set expectations accordingly and research current access conditions before making the trip.
