15. Kalawao, Hawaii, U.S.A.
With a population of only 90 people, Kalawao is the 2nd-least populated county in the whole of the United States. The only inhabited part is a small town, once used as a place for exiled sufferers of leprosy. After the quarantine was lifted once the disease became treatable, many people chose to remain in the small township.
