Over the past 100 years, Dodge City, Kansas has seen its fair share of excitement. As a hub of the cattle trade and a frontier town, it attracted all types of people, from buffalo hunters to drifters. When the settlement began, law enforcement was scarce. Dodge City became known as the most wicked town in the West and served as the inspiration for movies and television shows, including the Western drama series Gunsmoke.
