In many ways, Rock Springs, Wyoming is virtually indistinguishable from other major Wyoming cities. Of course, Rock Springs has its economic roots established in the energy industry, providing a great deal of oil and natural gas to those willing to exploit the area’s natural resources. The city rests on land that was formerly surrounded by small mining towns, and this legacy is well represented on the city’s entrance sign, which reads: “Home of Rock Springs Coal.” The scenic surroundings of Rock Springs are also quite attractive, as the White Mountain looms over the city at an elevation reaching just over 7,600 feet.
What does distinguish Rock Springs from other Wyoming cities is the city’s tarnished image, which is a result of several major incidents in its 100+ year history. Rock Springs was the site of the Rock Springs Riot, a murderous clash between Chinese immigrant workers and white miners. As a result of the riot, nearly thirty of the Chinese immigrants were dead, and 75 homes were burned causing a great deal of damage to the local economy. This event began a regional anti-Chinese movement that flourished in the latter 19th century. In addition to this event, numerous allegations of crime and corruption in boomtown era Rock Springs culminated in the killing of undercover police officer Mike Rosa by a fellow officer, and a trial that inexplicably released the shooter as inculpable. Further investigations by TV shows have been conducted in the latter 20th and early 21st centuries.
