South Dakota: Deadwood

Score: 45

"A tourist spend-a-day destination. Maybe that's just a modern version of what it has always been, a place for rubes to drop a few bucks."

"It's unfortunate that Deadwood didn't maintain the historical integrity of its building interiors when it turned the town over to casinos. Constant noise of slot machines and gaming is a detractor to a heritage experience."

"Totally devoted to tourist enterprises of dubious or non-existent historical values (mock gunfights). Surrounding countryside largely devoid of traditional pursuits like ranching and mining. Transient and unrewarding."

"Hokey and relatively unpleasant."
