The Fake Places Atlas United States of Television & Film

Every town you can’t actually drive to.

A road atlas of towns that only exist on screen. Each stop comes with its state (when anyone bothered to say), points of interest, a travel advisory where one is needed, and the shows and movies where you can visit. Pins are placed where the show says the town is, or in the middle of its state when it doesn’t.

Off the map

These stops are real enough on TV, but nobody will say which state they’re in, or they’re underwater, or they’re two million years ago.
