It is a "statutory town" seven miles east of Rifle, where her ptomaine palace used to be until she proved herself to be as adept at business as she is at passin' GED tests. Population is under 4000. Businesses in Silt include two hotels - it's right on I-70, so that's reasonable - three gas stations none of which are near the freeway, one pawn shop, a pot store because Colorado, and a place that installs DUI ignition interlocks.

Emphasizing that she's always been faithful, I believe to be the clue.

In a couple of months...surprise!: she's dating a younger man on her staff. Which there is nothing wrong with, but she can't have it both ways: if she cheated on her husband, she can no longer be part of the moral police.

Matthew 19 - And I tell you this, whoever divorces his wife and marries someone else commits adultery—unless his wife has been unfaithful.

I guess good Christian Boebert has some explaining to do.
