Small Town Goodness

Inspired by an AP article
And I thought -I- grew up in a small town. Frederick, KS, is also listed as a Ghost town and in ePodunk.com, but the linked AP article is where I heard of it. At a census listing of 11, it is the second smallest town in Kansas. Freeport, coming in with a census of 7, gets the title of "smallest town" in Kansas. Frederick has 7 street lights and, the mayor and a councilman do all the public property mowing. Frederick once featured a general store, hotel, post office, two lumber and hardware tores, a blacksmith shop, a bank, a doctor's office, three churches, and a town band. What more could you ask for?
