All's quiet on the southern front
Sasabe, Arizona, population 11.
"The official border-crossing point in this southern Arizona town is one of the loneliest outposts on the entire 2,000-mile U.S.-Mexico border. The Sasabe Port of Entry is so isolated U.S. officers once set up a barbecue grill on the front deck to fend off boredom. The grill has since been wheeled away. But the armed U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers assigned to the port still spend much of their time standing around in their crisp blue uniforms with little to do but wait for the next car or pickup to pull into the single entrance lane from Sonora into Arizona. On average, just 165 cars, trucks or pedestrians pass through the Sasabe port a day,"
