America's Loneliest Counties
Isolated, secluded, steeped in history and rich in tradition --
these counties are the least populated and most isolated places in
America, according to the
latest United States Census Bureau estimates. The people who
live in these isolated places enjoy a lifestyle and individual
freedoms that many thought had long since vanished in the United
States.
Untroubled by traffic jams or polluted air, their daily commute may be no
more than a brisk walk across across the street. Life is simpler here but
astonishingly interesting. For the people who live here, wildlife doesn't
mean a night on the town. For these residents, wildlife is what they see
every day - - sometimes even downtown.
It turns out these folks aren't lonely at all, but extremely friendly and
fiercely independent. Their stories may be some of America's best kept and
most fascinating secrets. |
