The map shows a large rubbish dump, various murder sites, crime scenes, the State Prison for the Criminally Insane, and "guy with hook for hand"; there are many strip joints ([[Jug-ya-Lug Lounge]] and [[Big Butts]] among them) and extremely dubious bars in Carter, including one with no roof and the ex-con bar 15 To Life.

Since Lawndale isn't portrayed as part of a crime-ridden hell of a county, Carter County may not have originally been planned as Lawndale's home. In the ''show'', Lawndale's county would be given as Lawndale County rather than Carter. See relevant comments under [[Off-Canon Canon#Carter County vs. Lawndale County|Off-Canon Canon]]. |
