Not the station at antartica or any place like that, but a place that’s been inhabited for a long time, with it’s own civilation.
Hawaii has to be in the running.

Tristan da Cunha is inhabited and 1350 miles from St Helena, the nearest inhabited place to it.
Easter Island is usually regarded as the most remote inhabited place on earth. It is roughly 2000 miles from anywhere else. While it did have its own civilization for centuries, the current inhabitants are not the decendants of the original colonizers.
I’ve also heard that Ascension Island is pretty remote, but the only indiginous culture were teh birds.
No. It’s 1290 miles from Pitcairn Island, which is inhabited.
According to the CIA factbook.
By 1767 Easter Island had already been inhabited for several hundreds of years. Also, Pitcairn was settled by the crew of the Bounty and I don’t think that is the sort of thing that mangeorge was getting at when he mentioned the ‘it’s own civilation’ thing.
Pitcairn was going to be my vote. It certainly has its own civilization that makes the backwoods of West Virginia appear absolutely cosmopolitan. It is inbred to the max and they only have one satellite phone although I am not sure who they plan to call off the island because of the formerly mentioned phenomena. It is probably the most remote long-term inhabited place in the world all things considered.
If both Pitcairn and Easter Island count as “inhabited” within the meaning of the OP, then neither is the correct answer as they are only 1290 miles apart. Tristan da Cunha is 1450 miles from the nearest habitation (not 1350 as I mistakenly said upthread - sorry about that.)
