Ghost town is not an official designation. I can't remember the exact definition when the USGS (I think it simply becomes a "locale" (see Clip, Arizona) or "historical" (I've seen that, but can't find an example at present) or simply doesn't have a GNIS designation (see Allen, Arizona). Other folks may call it a ghost town, but that's not an official designation. Onel5969TT me13:20, 29 January 2018 (UTC)Reply
