The short answer is "Yes."? The writers?dealt with an unrealistic?geography of 
NC.?? But I wonder if they did so to make sure to mention special places.? 
"Toast" and "Star," which each actually had town limit signs back to back were 
mentioned.? Manteo, Siler City, even the relative size of "Mt. Pilot" and its 
relationship to "Mayberry" didn't fit the map.? And wasn't Fancy Gap placed in 
NC rather than over the line in Virginia?? Imagine my surprise when I moved to 
NC and found out where stuff really was!? You don't suppose they were just 
messin' with my head.

And don't forget Aunt Bee's trip to Nags Head for dinner. That's on the coast - 
pretty far away from where we think of Mayberry being.
