It is, indeed, a very different point of view to grow up on the East Coast. I live in Schenectady, in New York state. It takes less time to drive to Boston than to NYC. For that matter, I could make a day trip of all of the New England states from where I live, and still get home before dark.
But then, I'm regularly boggled by the idea of needing a passport in Europe if one wishes to drive more than a few hours, so I guess it's all relative.
