Trivia

 * The town is likely based off of Salton City, California, a town which in the 50's and 60's was a seaside resort for the wealthy, but was left basically abandoned due to rising water levels and pollution of the Salton Sea (Alamos Sea) in the 70's and 80's. Despite all this, the name is a variation of Desert Shores, California which is another town established nearby the Salton Sea.
