Beyond its mining heritage, Silver City has evolved into a notable arts and cultural center. The town is home to Western New Mexico University, which contributes significantly to the area's educational and cultural landscape.
The surrounding area is known for its natural beauty, situated near the Gila National Forest and the Gila Cliff Dwellings National Monument, which showcase the region's rich Native American history.
