Nininger

I take issue with Nininger, Minnesota being on the list since people live there.--Appraiser (talk) 16:53, 1 August 2008 (UTC)Reply

"Ghost towns" do not need to have 'zero population', merely a population that is much less than it once was. Revent (talk) 18:29, 1 June 2013 (UTC)Reply

Rice Lake - why is it on this list?

edit

Rice Lake has more than 4,000 people living in it, so why is it listed as a ghost town? Is it because they changed from a town into a city a few years ago? Because that's not a ghost town, that's called growth. CountGrey (talk) 03:09, 27 April 2020 (UTC)Reply

After several months of no response, as well as researching Rice Lake and Rice Lake CDP (both of which are actually growing, not shrinking), I'm going to remove "Rice Lake" from this list of Ghost Towns. CountGrey (talk) 17:08, 2 December 2020 (UTC)Reply

Kilkenny Minnesota should be on the list 174.213.145.127 (talk) 04:09, 1 February 2022 (UTC)Reply

Kilkenny is a small town, not a ghost town. It never had more than 300 people in it, and hasn't dropped to such a low level that it would be considered a ghost town. CountGrey (talk) 17:55, 1 February 2022 (UTC)Reply
