This is a list of ghost towns in Nevada in the United States of America. Most ghost towns in Nevada are former mining boomtowns that were abandoned when the mines closed. Those that weren't set up as mining camps were usually established as locations for mills, or supply points for nearby mining operations. In Clark County settlements along the Colorado River have been submerged underneath the reservoirs of Lake Mead or Lake Mohave. ==Conditions== Ghost towns can include sites in various states of disrepair and abandonment. Some sites no longer have any trace of buildings or civilization and have reverted to empty land. Other sites are unpopulated but still have standing buildings. Still others may support full-time residents, though usually far less than at their historical peak, while others may now be museums or historical sites. For ease of reference, the sites listed have been placed into one of the following general categories. ;Barren site * Site is no longer in existence * Site has been destroyed, covered with water, or reverted to empty land * May have a few difficult to find foundations/footings at most ;Neglected site * Little more than rubble remains at the site * Dilapidated, often roofless buildings remain at the site ;Abandoned site * Building or houses still standing, but all or almost all are abandoned * No population, with the possible exception of a caretaker * Site no longer in use, except for one or two buildings ;Semi-abandoned site * Buildings or houses still standing, but most are abandoned * A few residents may remain ;Historic site * Buildings or houses still standing * Site has been converted to a historical site, museum, or tourist attraction * Still a busy community, but population is smaller than its peak years 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「List of ghost towns in Nevada」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
