A small town right in the actual middle of BFE, population 15 people. The town has a literal dime in a box as it’s center point, don’t f with it. Has a train track that goes right through the middle of it just to remind people there is civilization out of its borders, also a wake up call at 2:00 am, 4:00 am etc. One small convenient store with a 95% chance your item is expired. One summer a strip club popped up in town, and if you didn’t experience that then God was blessing you. You can backroad around the area for hours and forget about how you live in dime box, Tx.

“I live in Dime box Tx.” “Where the h*ll is that?”
