Then what are they? Theyre not big, but theyre certainly hills. In fact, several of those shots are of the "Campton Hills". Anything else youd like to argue about today?

The lowlands of Southeast Missouri south of the Ohio River/Mississippi River confluence are VERY flat. Some of the flattest land I've ever driven on, and I've covered 35 states in great detail. Absolutely flat as a pancake. Makes Indiana seem hilly hehe.

Also good for running marathons in!

A hill is a hill. There are hills like that surrounding most of Chicagoland to the south, west, southeast, and northwest.

A hills is anything like that to the giant hills surrounding NYC.

Not exactly Rmaf623 - West Monroe (Louisiana), Calhoun and into Ruston also has some hills. Some of West Monroe is actually pretty hilly. It reminds of ATL but definitely not to the extent that ATL has hills. But the scenery remainds me of ATL somewhat. Hmmm, I'm confused though - where exactly are the hills in Shreveport?

Dallas is know to be relatively Flat, but just to the west... is hill country rolling hills....and on occasional Mesa or basin... Not too far from Fort Worth...maybe not even 20 minutes out You can see the rolling hills...Tarrent county(Fort Worth) is still somewhat rural. In the spring in looks nice cause the hills are covered in flowers...
anyways, I have to agree with the new Mexico picture, Chicago isn't that flat... with those pictures... it actually resembles Dallas...(not the hill country) but Dallas.
Denver is Flat, it is right up against the mountains but flat as a pancake it is... The drive from Nebraska into Denver looks similar to that of the new Mexico picture.

Actually Shreveport is quite hilly-I don't know where you have been around there. Much of east shreveport and all of Bossier is flat. As you drive east toward Haughton it gets hilly again. The flat part is the red river valley , a term the locals don't use , preferring to call it a flood plain. NW shreveport and south central sections are quite steep in some areas- a person cannot see the houses on the hills at street level. Since NW Shreveport is a rough section of town, most people don't visit that area, but the hills are quite prominent. I still remember this area many years ago when it was safe.
