The Smithsonian Magazine named Humboldt as one of the “15 Best Small Towns to Visit in 2024.” It’s an annual list of small towns “that make up the heart of America.” The towns all have populations fewer than 25,000, according to the most recent U.S. Census Bureau estimates. Humboldt’s is 1,850. Towns selected offer “vast cultural experiences, superb nature, and a plethora of activities and events, not to mention an anniversary or opening that makes 2024 an especially great year to visit.” Humboldt was selected as “A Revitalized Small Town.” The magazine outlines the work done by A Bolder Humboldt, established in 2016, to “reimagine and rebuild” the local business community.
