Abandoned in the 1960's????

Well it's a shot in the dark, but here goes.
A few years ago I was online researching ghost towns etc and I found an old town (I'm about 90% sure it was in So California) that was built in the 50's but was totally vacated in the 60's? It showed an old movie theater and tons of houses and streets but it's all vacated due to water problems or something. If anyone knows anything about this town PLEASE let me know, I have been searching high and low online and can't find it again. Thanks!

You might be talking about Eagle Mountain. Salton Sea is kind like that but no movie theater.
