An Unusual Town Name in Austria, F*cking
I can't put the name of this special town in the title or url of this hub since Hubpages has prohibited such word from showing up in both of these spaces. Thus, I have to use an asterisk instead to replace the 'u'.

This little village is just 2.5 miles or about 4 kilometers east of the German border. It has a very tiny population of only 104 people and 32 houses.
