The only nearby town: Jericho!
J E R I C H O
"It's a brisk 25-minute walk, or there's a shuttle on weekends. The locals are a tad bit wary about Nevermore, so please don't go making any waves, or perpetuating any outcast stereotypes."

Jericho is an American town located in the state of Vermont, where mostly normies reside. The city is located not far from the Nevermore Academy, the American academy for outcasts.
Jericho was founded in 1625 by the pilgrim Joseph Crackstone. The same year, Crackstone and the pilgrims burned a house with many outcasts inside. One of these people, Goody Addams, manages to escape and kills Crackstone.
Today, Jericho is a small American country town with many shops, boutiques, and notable places dating from the time of the pilgrims. Many of the Jericho locals are wary of Nevermore students as they tend to cause issues in the town. There is also a sense of tension between its citizens and the students due to prejudice at the school. The current is Noble Walker, who is a normie and the former sheriff of the town.
