The largest county in Virginia landwise, yet only has a population of about 68,000. Located in South Central Virginia. Towns in Pittsylvania County include Chatham, Gretna, Hurt......and that's pretty much it. The larger city of Danville is located smack at the bottom of the county, although it's technically independent from the county.

In other words, PittCo is approximately 1000 square miles of boondocks and farms.

Outsider #2: "Oh no, we're just in Pittsylvania County."
