With a population of just 4,222, Chelan is a sleepy agricultural town, far removed from the buzz of urban life. While the area's natural beauty may initially entice, residents must contend with a near-desert climate and a persistent bureaucratic headache. Nearly 85% of the population lives in urban areas, suggesting this rural enclave is not for everyone.
