Windham, NY

A complete Mayberry that financially thrives on its tourist attractions. Everyone knows eachother and if you're not from Windham and you don't ski or know every single person who is from there, then you're a sketchy asshole that even the cashier at the way overpriced gas station keeps their eyes on. People become too friendly with you and collect info on your entire life to use it against you when they are bored, since there's nothing else to do in Windham but ski and go to car shows. Almost everyone you meet there is an alcoholic. Nobody wants to work in Windham. Small short staffed business owners have no trouble bribing their way out of being shut down, since they're probably drinking with the inspector by 9 AM. If you try to file a lawsuit in Windham for any sort of illegal behavior, Barney Fife and Andy Griffith will come after you with pitchforks and fire. The only radio station that comes through plays the same exact playlist every single day because it's too expensive to play anything later than 2012. They basically outcast everyone who isn't from there and their tap water is probably the reason so many people in Windham think it's ok to behave this way, but it's cheaper than a $14.99 six pack of water bottles so who cares.

Man 1: "You should check out Windham, NY this winter."

Man 2: "I thought Windham, NY was just a place in a Stephen King book!"
