Business & Economy
The Dunsmuir Chamber of Commerce, founded in 1949 unites local businesses with a common goal: increased revenues of our member businesses.
The City of Dunsmuir located next to I-5 and a railroad depot makes transportation easy. Dunsmuir and the surrounding local area has a broad mixture of commercial and industrial opportunities. Dunsmuir lends itself well to home-based, cottage and storefront businesses. Business licenses may be obtained at Dunsmuir City Hall.
The population of Dunsmuir is just below 2000 and just about 45,000 for all of Siskiyou County. Dunsmuir's taxable sales run over 12 million per year, with approximately 45 million in South Siskiyou County.
Several agencies are locally available to assist new and/or relocating businesses.
