Difficult, Tennessee

The state of Tennessee is home to some very strange towns, including Difficult. Of course, this isn't the best advertisement for the town - but it's still become somewhat of an attraction. After all, it's not every day you come across a town called Difficult. Legend has it that this small town got its name when the postal service told locals that their original name was too difficult to write and mail things to.

It's believed the locals got confused and thought their town had to be called Difficult, and the name stuck! But we can't help but wonder if the neighboring town is called Easy?
