A hick town(US) or boghole( Ireland) so rednecked, inbred, stupid and antsythat you'd swear someone had engineered the locals from cattle. From H.G. Wells' Island of Doctor Moreau, where the title character makes hominid creatures from other species. Irishversions also known as Ballymoreau.
He grew up in Moreauville, Kansas, but got out in the nick of time.
