How can an American town keep itself secret and isolated?

A town dating back to the late 1880s in northern Wisconsin has a dark secret that must be kept hidden by as few people as possible. How can this town keep itself isolated and off of maps during the time period while maintaining a relative population of 5,000? How does it accomplish this through the 20th century?

By the way, the town exists until 2003 or so, long before Google Maps was a thing, so don't involve digital age technology too much. And the government isn't involved in this secrecy.
