It's the same for Washington DC as well. You can easily drive 20 miles southwest and get stuck behind a tractor while driving past corn fields.

It's pretty similar for every city I've been to (including Atlanta). Drive an hour away and it's a completely different place.

Haha you could still be within a mile of DC after driving 20 minutes. It takes a little longer to find a corn field.

After driving 20 miles, not 20 minutes... Maybe ~20 minutes if it's 3:00AM on a Monday going west on I-66.
