The early history of Calico is similar to that of hundreds of other Southwest mining towns, starting with a period of quick growth followed by a brief boom time then a rapid decline as the mines, in this case silver and borax, became less profitable. Calico was soon abandoned and left to gradually decay in the desert sun until little remained, but in 1951 it was purchased by Walter Knott, an ex-miner (who also founded Knott's Berry Farm) and rebuilt as a modern day "ghost town".
