Lodi

Texas ghost towns run the full arc: cattle railheads, cotton towns the boll weevil broke, and oil booms that went bust.

Lodi is an unincorporated community in northern Marion County, Texas, United States. Its elevation is 253 feet (77 m). It has a post office with the ZIP code 75564. The only business in Lodi, Texas is Lodi Drilling & Service Company Inc. The settlement is named for Lodi, Italy.

The on-the-ground condition of Lodi is unverified — it's listed here with unknown status. That could mean standing buildings, or an empty field. Go prepared for either, and consider sharing what you find so the record improves.

Nobody has confirmed the access situation, so treat any visit as reconnaissance: verify land ownership first, and be ready to admire from the road.

Here's the honest truth: access to Lodi is unverified. We couldn't confirm whether the site sits on public land, private property, or something in between — so verify land ownership and local rules before visiting, and respect private property at all times.

Ghost-town etiquette is simple: take only photographs. Removing artifacts is illegal on public lands and disrespectful everywhere else — and on federal land it can be a serious offense.
