Quote:As established in the original series, the town of Twin Peaks lies "five miles south of the Canadian border, and twelve miles west of the [Washington-Idaho] state line." According to the now-iconic sign in the television show, the fictional town has a population of 51201—the final "1" having been painted on by an unknown figure to make the town seem much larger than its "actual" size. The forest surrounding Twin Peaks has "portals" to extradimensional locations called the "Black Lodge" and the "White Lodge".
