There are two communities named Sodom in New York State. One is alongside a reservoir in the New York City suburbs; the [other](http://maps.google.com/maps?client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&hl=en&tab=wl) is in the Adirondack Park. The latter is a crossroads formed by Back to Sodom Road and Peaceful Valley Road, which is joined a mile northwest by A Hitchcock Road.

[Pink Schoolhouse Road](http://maps.google.com/maps?client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&hl=en&tab=wl) is over in Jefferson County.

[Number Four Road](http://maps.google.com/maps?client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&hl=en&tab=wl) is not so called because it’s Route Number Four or something, but because it connects Lowville with the community of Number Four.

Nprth Carolina State Highway 1010 runs east-west across southern Raleigh metropolitan area in Wake County, NC. Its road name, as opposed to highway number? [TenTen Road, of course.](http://maps.google.com/maps?client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&hl=en&tab=wl)

I was biking home from a party once and looked up to see REO Speedwagon Way.

In all seriousness, it is actually worth visiting 🙂

We have a Sodom Road off of Rte 32 in Franklin, CT. Kind of old-school, but never loses its charm.
