Please note that 29 Palms is incorrect. There is a Post-office requirement that all city names start with alphabet.
Thousand Oaks, TWENTY-NINE Palms, Dos Palos.
In death Valley there was a mining town nicknamed 22 Skidoo, when the post office was named the numerical prefix was dropped to only Skidoo. Now it’s a ghost town, and no post office.
