But that just brings up more questions! How big is Storybrooke, really? As the opening narration clearly states the entire population of the FTW got transported- just how big a population are we talking? I'm gonna go ahead and guess it's bigger than your average small town in Maine. No one's noticed this at all ever? And every single person (except Gold I guess) has a custom-made backstory concurrent with our 21st century world? That is one helluva curse!

I guess, considering the backstories, the accents could be accounted for, that those characters came to Storybrooke from Australia, Scotland, etc. But I dunno, I'm pretty sure it's canon that they've all lived in Storybrooke forever and have never even thought of trying to leave.
