The southwest desert climate has a winter low Temperature of 40 degrees and a summer high Temperature of 105 degrees. The community offers beautiful scenery and many local legends.
History:
If you look back in history, you will learn of a dispute over the towns name.
John Ramsey discovered the Ramsey Mine in 1921. The mine is located about 10 miles south of where the town of Brenda is today. then in the 1930s, Grover and Anna Spitznagel became homesteaders in the area. They built the Black Rock building. Those traveling through will find that the building is now a restaurant. The Spitznagels had twins, named Bruce and Brenda. Brenda was chosen for the name of the town.
Some say that half of the town was named Ramsey and the other half was named Brenda. Others say the town was named Ramsey. Or could it be that when Brenda got to be more popular than the mining town, the name Brenda stuck or was the town always named Brenda? It is hard to say which story is true, however today the name is Brenda.
From the 1940s through the 1960s, Brenda was a popular stopping place. It is believed that the Ramsey section of town had an unusual attraction for travelers. A petting zoo was on site, but little else is known about the zoo.
After the 1960s, the town diminished in size. The Ramsey mine officially closed and Interstate 10 opened causing tourists to bypass town.
Recently, Brenda has become a growing community for RVers and for drivers along U.S. Highway 60.
