Last week’s contest was won by milwhcky. It was Elmwood Park, NJ.
This week’s is another random location somewhere on earth, good luck!
Can’t Bring Yourself to Type the Word “Ass”?
Eager to share our brilliant political commentary and blunt media criticism, but too genteel to link to horsesass.org? Well, good news, ladies: we also answer to HASeattle.com, because, you know, whatever. You're welcome!
The sandy color resembles a coastal area, but the waterfront looks more like a river or small lake. This one should be tough to figure out.
Definitely a One-Percenter conclave. Maybe the one in the foreground was bought with a bonus paid from TARP funds …
Sand, big shingle-style houses, non-ocean type shore – I’d say a ritzy resort area on a pond in New England, close to the ocean – Cape Cod, perhaps, or anywhere on an inland waterway on the east coast – could even be Gulf. Big area to search.
Come to think of it – the ocean could be right off the picture to the right – those look like paths through dunes – so a spit of land between the ocean and some pond or waterway.
@3 Much of the Pacific coast is protected from development, whereas little of the Atlantic coast is, so if this is a coastal community the odds heavily favor it being east coast.
But I don’t think it’s a coastal community. The vegetation grows right to the water line. You don’t see that on waterways subject to tidal ebbs and flows. There would always be a barren strip between the high and low water marks. There’s no waves on the water, either, which also rules out ocean frontage.
These homes have to be on an inland lake, pond, or river. I’m thinking maybe a Texas reservoir.

If you look at the narrow islands along the coast of Fort Lauderdale/Palm Springs, you’ll see several areas where the inland water is calm with vegetation along the shore. I’m not sure how tide levels effect those inland waterways, but it could have been photographed at high tide.
With that said, I’m not yet convinced this location is near the ocean.
Might want to go further north. Those look like homes I have seen around parts of Long Island and Rhode Island.
I think the Ocean is on the right side, not the water you see on the left side, that might be some type of waterway. I say this because usually the backyards face the ocean, and there is so much unused space on the right hand side, i believe it leads to the beaches.
The water on the left can’t be ocean, because nobody would put a road that close to the ocean. In any kind of weather, you’d have breakers washing over the road.
Lots of similar-looking places along the coast of Belize, but a few quick swipes down the map of that coast yielded nothing.
All vehicles are on the left of the road. Could this be, say, Australia?
Well, don’t Texasses drive on the left side of the road, too? I’m not talking about traffic laws, I’m talking about behavior. Btw, do they accept American money at Houston’s airport? I want to know in case I have to change planes there someday.
On the coast of Delaware
(My 11-year-old son helped me with this — although he came after I had already spent an hour…)

I didn’t even notice that, but no, it’s in the U.S. – and within a day’s drive of last week’s contest location.
@13
Nice!!! Just as I posted a clue. Good win!
