According to the State of Oregon: https://sos.oregon.gov/
“Ghost towns defy easy explanation.”
What is a Ghost Town?
1. Has a history of decline and loss.
2. Is of historic interest.
3. Can be “home to living people - thousands of them, even.” But not enough to “fill all offices provided for under its charter.”
