Buford, Wyoming is the smallest town in US, is now moving out on sale for this week with an current price of $100,000.

As this sale was set for Thursday April 5 "which gives an exclusive offer to take possession of an entire town, which is in addition to Buford Trading Post, an income-producing convenience and fuel store" the firm which is dealing the auction said.

Selling the town was the idea of Buford's self-proclaimed mayor and only resident, Don Sammons, who has spent the past few years alone after his wife died and the couple's grown son moved away.

The 61-year-old Sammons owns and operates the Buford Trading Post, a gas station and convenience store mainly serving travelers on Interstate 80, which crosses the country from New York to San Francisco.

Founded in 1866, Buford was once home to as many as 2,000 people, most of them employed in building the railroad, but its isolated location left residents with few employment options once the railway was completed.

In the 1980s Sammons moved to Buford with his family.

The property which comprises 10 acres of land and a three-bedroom house, five US Post Office boxes and also with a cell phone tower.
