Footnotes ...

<1>Our distances are not driving distances, but are calculated as a 'straight-line' distance. A straight line distance ignores things like rivers, canyons, lakes, et cetera - it's truly a line drawn from Point A (ie- Anthonyville) to Point B.Our distance measurements begin at a specific point in Anthonyville. The point we use is located at these GPS coordinates - Latitude: 39.3379, Longitude: -76.5519       In this case, the coordinates for Anthonyville have been provided by the Geographic Names Information System (GNIS).
