No evidence of an "unincorporated community" here. Older topos show a creek and basin called Grass Creek, and the 1985 edition shows "Grass Creek" marking a cluster of buildings that are revealed by satellite imagery to be an oilfield facility. – dlthewave ☎ 22:35, 13 January 2022 (UTC)

- Keep Grass Creek had a post office as late as 1977, a school until 1974, and an airstrip in the 1920s. It also had its own local news section in the Casper Star-Tribune for several years. TheCatalyst31 Reaction• Creation 23:30, 13 January 2022 (UTC)

- Weak Keep - Based primarily on the airstrip article and postmaster stories: the airstrip story is clear coverage of the community and the postmaster story is mostly about the postmaster but I'll give the benefit of the doubt. The "separate news section" is basically society announcements that would have been sourced from the people the one-sentence stories are about and is not independent, reliable, significant coverage of the location. Having a school/post office is neither here nor there - these don't show legal recognition as schools/post offices can be literally anywhere, including outside communities.
