A boom town is one that has suddenly grown a lot and become rich.

A ghost town is a term used to describe a town, village, or settlement that has been abandoned or significantly depopulated. Typically, this happens due to economic, social, or environmental reasons that make it no longer sustainable or viable for people to live there.

If you couldn't find information about ghost towns in your textbook or glossary, here are a few steps you can take to get more information:
