I like to open Google Maps and find places in our country where I have no concept of what life there is like. Here's one,

Guymon, Oklahoma


I was born in Sacramento, CA, then moved to Rhode Island at age 10, and went to college in Boston, MA. I vacationed once to Austin, TX, which was pretty cool. Being in Rhode Island, I'm a 3 hour drive to NYC, or 30 minute drive to Boston. And Philly and DC by train are only a few hours top. I've always wondered what it would be like to like to not not live in a geographical hub location, because most of my American experience has been shaped by living close to a major metropolitan city.

Please tell me about your weird geographically isolated town you live in (Or just Guymon), and why it's good, bad, and what your life is like (?) , as I'd find that fascinating to read about.

And they won't be replaced by any younger heirs. The town will completely dry up in a decade and what will remain is a series of isolated bunker/compounds where angry Nazi guys drive big trucks in the dust, mad at their dicks

This is a real concern. Anybody out there. Is there an aging poplation problem?
