==Towns erroneously called ghost towns==

Some towns like [[Tombstone, Arizona]] and [[Deadwood, South Dakota]] are erroneously referred to as ghost towns, when in fact they are actual inhabited towns which at one time saw a rapid decline after a mining boom, but never became actual ghost towns.  Their "ghost town" status is a means of attracting tourists while in actuality they are tourist towns.
