The results of the non-scientific survey “In” or “on” the Northern Neck? are in!
The basics:
- There were 23 responses
- Of the 23 respondents, 88% described themselves as come heres
The heart of the matter:
- In/on/both: “in” (48%), “on” (32%), “both” (20%)
- Of the 23 respondents, 88% described themselves as come heres
- Of the 23 respondents, 17 (76%) described themselves as full timers
As for explanations, there was disagreement over when to use “in” (“in a location”) and “on” (“One lives *on* a peninsula. But it’s *in*, if it’s a region. I had assumed it’s a peninsula.”).
So, no concensus, but an interesting engagement. Many thanks to those who participated.
