A builder in my area named one of the cul-de-sacs in a nearby development "Gayboy Court."

Hence the reason that everything in south-central New Jersey is named “Princeton” this or “Princeton” that even though the actual township of Princeton is rather small.

Two personal favorites of mine, here in northcentral Pennsylvania: “Horse Thief Run Road” and “Hardscrabble Road.”

Just name any street after Martin Luther King and watch the prices dive.

This can be applied to a few limited addresses also. We looked at a house, one we liked, but it’s address was ‘666’,
I know it was silly, but we walked away. Just did not want to deal with that perception of a potentially bad omen.

I grew up on Pansy Avenue. Took a lot of ribbing for that one.

My personal favorite...

Within visual range of our friends rallying curbside at Operation Infinite Freep. Recognize this, Mr. Trooprally?

My son lives in a neighborhood in Toronto in which all the streets have “Oriental Monarchs” names: Ranee, Rajah, Khedive, Sultana, etc. Who wants to live on Caliph Street?

Surprisingly there are few Muslims in this neighborhood, but it is heavily Jewish.

I go past a Dump Road in N. Wisconsin. Not sure anyone lives on it though.

Some info about the Bong recreation area.

It was named after USAAF ace Richard I. Bong, the top American ace in WWII and Medal of Honor recipient. The area was intended to become The Bong Air Force Base, but it was never completed. It is a large park with hunting, RC model flying field, a beach and other activities.

Ahsland, Oregon, until 10 or 15 years ago had Dead Indian Road.

Then they changed it to Dead Indian Memorial Road, 'to make it less offensive'.

At Gold Hill, OR, there is also Rough And Rugged Road.

Those make Jacksonville, OR's Poorman's Creek Road seem posh.

How about Lover’s Lane, a major street in Visalia, Calif., or Memory Lane in Santa Ana, Calif.?

And towns:
I intentionally avoided even looking at homes in Alpharetta (Georgia) - it sounds too much like what an illiterate would name her first female child...

Or Krum (Texas), which is no better than you’d think.
