I live in the geometric center of Valdosta, GA, population ~100,000. Its somewhere around magnitude four. The darksite I use is 25 miles away, straight away from the city with not much in between. The skies there are rated between green and blue, and everytime I go there, I am amazed at how many stars I can see, even though there is a light dome that rises ~20 degrees of the horizon.
