Our distances are not driving distances, but are calculated as a 'straight-line' (or point-to-point) distance. A straight line distance ignores things like rivers, canyons, lakes, et cetera - it's truly a line drawn from Point A (ie- New Town) to Point B.Our distance measurements begin at a specific point in New Town. The point we use is located at these GPS coordinates - Latitude: 33.8121, Longitude: -82.8107 In this case, the coordinates for New Town have been provided by the Geographic Names Information System (GNIS).
