Arco is a small city located in Butte County, Idaho, with historical significance as the first community in the world to be powered by nuclear energy. On July 17, 1955, it made history when the BORAX-III reactor at the nearby National Reactor Testing Station (now part of the Idaho National Laboratory) provided electricity to the town.
The city sits in the Snake River Plain and is surrounded by volcanic landscapes and high desert terrain. Arco serves as a gateway to the Craters of the Moon National Monument, a vast preserve of volcanic formations and unique geological features.
The town's cultural heritage is closely tied to its role in atomic research and development, which is reflected in various local landmarks and monuments. Despite its small size, Arco maintains its importance as a historical site in America's nuclear energy development and continues to attract visitors interested in both its scientific legacy and natural surroundings.
