I don't consider anywhere in either state the middle of nowhere because I am from a non-coastal state out West where there are lots of places (including where I grew up) where the nearest *small* city is at least a day's drive away.

There is nowhere in either of these states where you can't be in Richmond or Baltimore or DC by lunch if you left a breakfast.

LOL! I was thinking the same but thought it would be too snarky to post. For those of us who actually live in DC in a safe blue bubble, it feels dangerous to leave the confines of the bubble to run into MAGAs and their guns.


Provincialism at its finest.

Bruh, MD is one of the bluest states in the Union. Biden won it by over 30 points, IIRC.

You're probably more likely to run into guns in DC.

Google definition the middle of nowhere is: “a place that is remote and isolated”

The people who say Germantown, Gaithersburg, Manassas, Frederick, Fredericksburg, etc… you cannot be in the middle of nowhere at any of these locations. They are all in the DC Metro Area and easily accessible to everything from public transportation to highways to hospitals and restaurants. It’s impossible for these to be “middle of nowhere”.

This one seems too close to Richmond and Virginia Beach to truly be middle of nowhere.


Current population is 306. Have you ever been to Surry County? GTFOH with your "seems" nonsense.


Surry County.....where they still talk about the War of Northern Aggression.


LOL, no. Surry is 41% black. Do you know anything about that area?


Gee, I wonder what historical phenomenon led to a large black population in a small southern town and whether any of the sociological elements that led to those demographics still have an influence.
