Podunk

Podunk is a word that means a very small or remote town that is not very important or well-known. Imagine if you were playing with your toys and you had a little toy village that only had a few houses and maybe a little store. That toy village would be like a podunk town. It's not a big city with lots of people and fancy things to do, but it's still a place where people live and go about their daily lives. People might use the word podunk when they want to describe a place that feels really far away or hard to get to.
