Montgomery City was an unincorporated community in Mono County, California.

[1] It was located 2.5 miles (4 km) east-northeast of Benton,[2] at an elevation of 6450 feet (1966 m).

[1] Silver was discovered in the nearby mountains in 1863, and the Montgomery Consolidated Gold and Silver Mining Company was organized the following year, which led to a local silver rush.

Montgomery City sprang up quickly and boasted "half a hundred tents and cabins...four or five saloons, a blacksmith's shop, the recorder's office, and a store or two", but soon declined and was only scattered ruins by the 1970s.
