A quick look at the 894 small villages you can be asked to find on the map, before you play.

The hardest tier: places small enough that even many locals would need a map. This is where the best players separate themselves from everyone else.

In the Netherlands this set is spread across 12 different provinces, with Noord-Brabant home to the most of them (167).

How this category is defined

Place kinds on GuessTheDot are a practical grouping by population and place type for gameplay, not a legal or historical designation. A place can hold official city rights (or an old city charter) and still show up here as a village if it stayed small, and the other way around: this is a rough size ladder for guessing, not a statement about a place's official status.

Tips for this category

Population under a few thousand almost always means rural: rule out anywhere near a major city first.
When in doubt, guess toward the edges and coastlines: small villages are disproportionately common away from the big urban centers.
