Strong City, Oklahoma, USA

Strong City is a city in name (see it?) only. It offers strong proof that a city can be rural. Why rural? Because it does not meet the 2,500 population minimum set by the U.S. Census Bureau. In fact, its population never reached even half of that, not even in 1900 when it peaked. Today, only a few more than 400 souls keep the "city" alive. [2018]
