Playas has a story worth telling. The New Mexico Tech puts it this way: "In 1971, many years after operation of the railroad ceased, Phelps Dodge (PD) built a copper smelter about 10 miles south of the siding. Because the area provided little housing options, PD built a town for employees of the smelter."
Playas is a community in Hidalgo County. The Census Bureau counted 25 people here in 2020.
