Roswell Places Guide



**** Looks like Firefox finally fixed their rendering bugs and this page is working! ****
If you are still having a problem, try using a different browser.
IE, Safari and Chrome work just fine.


Below is a complete list of ALL Places on the show, ALL known info about them and their significance.
****It should be current up through the end of season 2.****

I have done tons of research for my writing, gathering as many details as I could to make things as accurate as possible.
I've decided to make a place to easily reference all of that info.





With each place I've included a list of the episodes in which they appeared.
(A request by my friend River Dog.)
I've also referenced all facts with the episode when we learned them.
I abbreviated the episode names. For a list of the abbreviations, look at the bottom of the page.

Some of the places were on the map that was in the Roswell Soundtrack. I've added links to the map on the
relevant places, so you can see where they are in relation to each other.

I've also included some things that never made it to the show but were supposedly in earlier script
versions or cut scenes - abbreviated as (CS) cut scenes

I'm just guessing on some of the spellings. If anyone has correct spellings, please let me know.
Also, if anyone has additional facts or places, I'll be glad to add them.



For a quick reference on businesses and services in Roswell see the Roswell City Directory.

All info is from season 1 & 2
Season 3 is such a piece of crap, I'm not motivated to reference it, and I prefer to pretend it doesn't exist.

This page is graphics intensive. It may take a few minutes to load.
