Winnemucca is featured prominently in the novel Revoltingly Young by C.D. Payne, and is also a setting in More Tales of the City by Armistead Maupin. The city is also referenced in the North American version of the song "I've Been Everywhere."

In the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, Winnemucca was the location of a vibrant Chinatown. While many Chinese left Winnemucca after the Central Pacific Railroad had completed its connection with the Union Pacific Railroad in 1869, around four hundred Chinese had formed a community in the town by the 1890s. Among the prominent buildings was the Joss House, a place of worship and celebration that was visited by Chinese president Sun Yat-Sen in 1911.

Historically, Winnemucca was a station on the Transcontinental Railroad.

Winnemucca is the half-way point between Salt Lake City and San Francisco.

Most of Winnemucca's residents are employed directly by mining companies or mining vendors and contractors, or by the many casinos, bars, hotels, and potato processing plants in the city. Winnemucca has several legal brothels.
