 Greenwater, CA is a desert which can have several uses besides the copper mining that the land was previously used for.For example, the land that makes up Greenwater, CA was severely damaged when the town collapsed in the early 1900s which makes it so that there is a mix of soils and sands making the site difficult to build on.The government has had their eye on the land as a possible a camp site, however, the land has not healed itself yet making it so that streets cannot be built.
