Linton: The Magic Coal City

The City of Linton has been referred to as the ‘Magic Coal City’ or even the 'Pittsburg of the West’ because of its vast coal reserves. Coal mining in the early-1900's made this area thrive. Then, the mines went away. Yet, this small city still remains. Today, coal mining is making a resurgence again after many years without. Reinvigorating small business and personal financial education will help with its come back as the smallest, ‘big town’ in southwestern Indiana.
