Shady Grove, Pawnee County, Oklahoma
Unincorporated community in Oklahoma, United States From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Shady Grove was a town in southeastern Pawnee County, Oklahoma, United States, near Lake Keystone. The population was 44 at the 2000 census. In the 2010 census, its population had dropped to 2, and a 2011 news report stated that one of those two had left since the census, leaving it the smallest town in the state. The report explained that the owner of the seven mobile home lots that made up the town had incorporated it in 1997 to avoid being absorbed into a larger municipality, but had dissolved the town in 2006 and died in 2009, and nearly all the tenants had departed.[2] This is not to be confused with the similarly-named Shady Grove in Cherokee County, or the Shady Grove in McIntosh County.
