Inmans was once a small settlement located in Kern County, California. It was situated high up in the mountains, about 7,408 feet (or 2,258 meters) above sea level. Inmans was still shown on maps until the year 1947.

What Was Inmans?

Inmans was a place that people once lived in, but it is no longer an active community today. We call places like Inmans a "former settlement" because it used to be a populated area, but now it's not.

Where Was Inmans Located?

This old settlement was found in Kern County, which is a large county in the southern part of California. It was quite high up, almost like being on top of a tall mountain! The exact spot was 7,408 feet (that's about 2,258 meters) above the ocean.

Why Don't We See Inmans Today?

Inmans was a place that appeared on maps for many years. However, by 1947, it was no longer marked on maps. This means that sometime around or before that year, the settlement likely became empty, and people stopped living there. Many small settlements in remote or mountainous areas can become "ghost towns" over time, especially if the reasons people lived there (like mining or logging) disappear.
