You know you live in a small town when the airport manager, U.S Customs agent, bar owner, store owner, school bus driver, electric company owner, and bush pilot is all the same person.
...When your rush hour traffic consists of maybe 10 cars?
I think we have a bit of growing to be able to make it to "small" status then. We can manage 5 or 6 sometimes at the lone stop light, but 10 would be pushing our luck. Does it have to be all at the same time, or could we count a couple changes of the light? Do tractors count?
We likely get 10 cars passing through an hour. Does that count?
Or would they need to be 10 cars within the horizon of each other? I dont think we ever get that many cars in town.
Come on Forest, Argyle is huge. The Argyle Metro area must consist of at least a couple dozen houses and almost a 100 people (we won't say how big of an area you have to cover to reach those staggering numbers though ) Why too much more growth and you might have to start thinking of a traffic light, and find a place to hang it... Maybe where Argyle Road connects with 116. Might even get your own exit and entrance onto the freeway .

Hope your Apple trees are doing good this year!
It is hard to imagine 2 vehicles happening to be at that 'intersection' at the same time to require a light. Or even a stop sign.
The 'crossroad' that crosses between Argyle and Alton has no centerline, and is not plowed in the winter. I am not sure if the state DOT laid the asphalt, or if a local did it out of boredom. In Alton it is labeled 'Argyle'; in Argyle it is the road that leads to Alton, I am not sure if it has a label on our end.
20 miles of road with a couple dozen houses makes for a form of 'metro' community. A very small 'metro' community.

I know the road, been there on more than a few occasions.
When I worked for DSI out of the Presque Isle office I made the trip down there to hang a door in your area because I was the only one who knew where Argyle even was.
You know you live in a small town when there is only 1 DVD store in the entire town. That is the case in the Alaska town of Barrow.
