Odd to see all those towns with distances measured to the nearest tenth of a mile...

Indeed! I figure it's got to be a county creation (in this case, Mitchell Co, IA).

The smallest distance measured over here is quarter mile.

Montréal -> Leyton or Leytonstone

Saint Ansgar 'round my neck

Surely I can't be the only one who thought of a certain Metallica song the first time he ever heard of this town.

Government would be tolerable if not for politicians and bureaucrats.

Huntingsburg => Gettysburg (SD):



Doesn't help, doesn't hurt -- but I thought the welcome sign was clever, hinting that South Dakota's Gettysburg had something to do with the Civil War, only to tell you it didn't (it wasn't even established until about two decades later). A sign on the other side of town helpfully tells you the distance to that other Gettysburg.
