    Never saw much of the Town of Faro, what are the price of groceries, gasoline, utilities. Is the Anvil mine system still,operating?

      blah the mine has been shut down since the early 90's , it's pretty much an abandoned ghost town now , about 150-200 people live there now , there's no gas station , no grocery store , hardly nothing there now , houses with over grown lawns , this video was filmed in the 80's

      joe momma that’s not true at all. There’s cardlock gas, a bar, restaurant and hotel and a grocery store. While portions of the town are abandoned, the town has just recently acquired all of the abandoned mining houses and has been auctioning them for people to buy and redevelop. There’s actually a few hundred people with many new families. Mine remediation are set to start in 2019/2020 and will see a number of workers come to the area.

      Sorry to say, town is full, lol, most houses have been repaired and new town people already moved in. Visit the Faro website and check out what is and has happened in the last 10 years.
