Catharpin

A small town that is usually considered Gainesville or Haymarket because the post office only goes to like 2 streets. Mostly farms, and the developments are required to have 10 acres each. Where the only grocery store is about the size of a 7-11 and everything costs twice as much. Nobody has even heard of Catharpin, unless they live or have lived there. And when people pronounce it like, "Ca-tharp-in" it really makes them mad.
A small town that is considered to be in the Middle of Nowhere, Virginia.
