Greensboro

Real or Fictional

Whit's wiping down the counter, Connie's mopping the floor, and the kids are sipping on their milkshakes. If you want to talk about Adventures in Odyssey the radio drama, this is the spot to do just that!

Greensboro is listed as a real city on the AIOwiki because Greensboro, North Carolina is a real city; however, I got the idea that it was a fictional city that was just happens to have the same name. If I remember right Greensboro was close to Odyssey so it wouldn't make since for it to be in North Carolina since Chicago is well established as within a relative driving distance. What are your thoughts?

Well Odyssey's not within "driving distance" per se of Chicago. Odyssey's in Ohio, which is halfway between Illinois and North Carolina. I also got the impression that Greensboro isn't very close to Odyssey, though I'd imagine it would have to be closer than NC, as the tow truck driver knew where Odyssey was, and probably wouldn't for a town that size if it were that far away.

I was powering my two-wheeler along this concrete pathway, when your personnage suddenly appeared directly in front of me blocking my course. My reflexes immediately sprang to life in an attempt to navigate an evasive manouveur around you while still maintaining course and speed, but I evidently over-compensated, and my Schwinn careened off the hardened path, taking me with it, and up-ended us both in this shrub, a Rhododendron of the heath family I believe, deducing from the leathery evergreen leaves, as distinguished from the deciduous Azalea, which as we all know is..."

It's actually Greensburg.
