We used to live in a city of 70,000 residents. it was pretty spread out, like TV is. We didn't use all of the city. We pretty much stayed in our immediate area for recreation, church, etc. I think we latecomers to TV (2011) see it as a whole city with a lot of smaller communities in it. Even though we can avail ourselves of all of it, we don't really need to. The people in Fenney might enjoy being a bit "Far from the madding crowd," at least for as long as it takes TV to buy parcels around Fenney and fill them in. Which as a poster already opined, could take long enough that he might not still be around.
