NJDOT used to sign all sorts of little dinky areas on small green signs all over the state.
I think I remember seeing those on US 9 when I was a little kid, mostly at the jughandles.

Exit 56 off of I-84 in Oregon kind of leads you to nowhere.

Not sure if this meets the criteria of the thread, but Tennyson (TX) had a population of 64 as of the 2000 census.  A post office and church have somehow managed to remain.  A better destination, IMO, would simply be Hwy 277.

I-80's last exit in California before the Nevada border, "Farad" (Exit 201), leads to a surface street called Mystic Road.  Farad itself is apparently a former settlement according to Wikipedia - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Farad,_California

On a minor route in a rural area, a community of that size seems like a pretty reasonable destination. It's still an inhabited place with local services, and it's not like you hit any bigger places along the way.
