Santenello travels to communities all over America that are unique in some way and interacts with the residents to take viewers on an in-depth and educational tour of each destination.

One of the places the YouTuber visited in the not-so-distant past was the tiny, rural town of Kit Carson, Colorado.

Santenello's trip took him down what appeared to be a rather desolate main drag with a grocery store, antique shop, church, and more. However, because of Kit Carson's small population, you'd almost think he was driving through a ghost town.

However, after cruising through a quaint residential area, Santenello was given a brief tour of the town's solitary school that, according to the resident showing him around, cost upwards of $30 million.

After checking out the massive school, Santenello visited a ranch where he was greeted by a young lady who moved from the hustle and bustle of California to the historic Colorado town and never looked back.

Despite being little more than a wide spot in the road, Kit Carson is definitely worthy of a visit but before you plan out your next trip to the eastern plains, check out some highlights from Santenello's trip below:
