Arlington (also Rockdale) [5] is a census-designated place (CDP) in southeastern Carbon County, Wyoming, United States. The population was 25 at the 2010 census. [6]
Arlington lies at the intersection of Interstate 80 and WYO 13, [7] northwest of Laramie and east of the city of Rawlins, the county seat of Carbon County. [8] Its elevation is 7,707 feet (2,349 m), and it is located at 41°35′41″N 106°12′30″W / 41.59472°N 106.20833°W (41.5946899, -106.2083459). [5]
According to the United States Census Bureau, the CDP has a total area of 4.1 square miles (10.5 km2), all land. [6]
In its earliest years, Arlington was a commercial stop along the Overland Trail. [9] Founded circa 1860, [4] it began with the establishment of a bridge and stage stop at the crossing of Rock Creek, after which it was named until the early twentieth century. [9] In 1983, the community was listed on the National Register of Historic Places as a historic district for its nineteenth-century significance. [4]
In 1882, a post office was established at Rock Creek under the name of "Rock Dale." [9] Except for a gap in 1924 and 1925, a post office with the name of Arlington was operated in the community from 1902 to 1943. [10]
