==Culture== Bisbee was featured in the September 10, 2001 edition of [[Newsweek]], discussing the slow, painful decline of the town since (at that time) even the mayor, Bob Weltin, was preparing to forsake what was left of the town and seek a better life elsewhere. Things Bisbee had lost over the years, according to the Newsweek article, included movies at Pettsinger's Theater, root-beer floats at Brannon's Drug and Soda Fountain, and groceries at Dick's Red Owl. At the time of the article, there wasn't a doctor, lawyer, plumber or priest in Bisbee anymore. Population had dropped more than 30 percent in a decade. At the time of the article, there were only 227 "hearty souls" hanging on for dear life in Bisbee.<ref>{{cite journal |last1=Johnson |first1=Dirk |title=Death of a Small Town |journal=Newsweek |date=10 September 2001 |volume=138 |issue=11 |pages=30β31 |url=https://www.newsweek.com/death-small-town-152013 |access-date=March 31, 2022}}</ref>
