From depeople (de- + people) plus -ed (past participle/adjective suffix). The adjective form describes a state of being emptied of people.
'Depeopled' has an eerie, haunting quality—it describes cities emptied by war, plague, or forced migration, and you'll find it in historical accounts of ghost towns and abandoned regions where communities once thrived.
