Winnemucca, Nevada For Sale By Owner - Local Information
Winnemucca (Win-ah-muc-ah) is a city in and the county seat of Humboldt County, Nevada, United States. As of the 2000 census, the city had a total population of 7,174. Interstate 80 passes through the city, where it meets U.S. Route 95.
The city is also referenced in the North American version of the song "I've Been Everywhere", originally recorded by Hank Snow, and more recently covered by Johnny Cash. The song opens with the narrator walking "the dusty Winnemucca road" and accepting a ride to Winnemucca. However, we never do find out if he actually makes it to Winnemucca, as he spends the rest of the song listing the dozens and dozens (91 in total) of other places he's been.
Winnemucca is featured prominently in the novel Revoltingly Young by C.D. Payne, and is also a setting in More Tales of the City by Armistead Maupin, where one character finds employment as a receptionist in a local brothel. It gives its name to the 2002 album by Richmond Fontaine, the alt-country band from Portland, Oregon.
According to a billboard spotted along State Route 140 (the "Winnemucca To the Sea Highway"), Winnemucca styles itself "The City by Battle Mountain" (the song referenced above talks about the hitchhiker walking along "the dusty Winnemucca road").
Each February, the city hosts the NIAA state championships in wrestling for all classes (AAAA, AAA and AA) at the Winnemucca Events Center.
