Boondocks

The boondocks is an American expression that stems from the Tagalog word 'bundok'. It originally referred to a remote rural area, but now it is often applied to an out-of-the-way city or town considered backward and unsophisticated.

Напомнило:
There were so many hairdressing establishments and funeral homes in the
regional centre of N. that the inhabitants seemed to be born merely in order
to have a shave, get their hair cut, freshen up their heads with toilet
water and then die.
(Translated from the Russian by John Richardson)
