Editing Boondox

'''Boondox''' is a town located to the north of the player's town<ref>"''<Player>, have you heard of the town of Boondox? It lies far north of here.''" — Pelly, {{WW}}</ref> in {{WW}}. The name Boondox comes from the word ''{{Wp|boondocks}}'', which means an uncivilized, poor area. [[Pelly]] or [[Phyllis]] will first inform the [[player]] of the [[town]] when they first ask to make a [[donation]]. Both pelicans cry when telling a player of Boondox. According to them, Boondoxians just eat grilled cheese, but since there is no cheese or bread, they are forced to eat fried dirt, "without ketchup!" However, this may just be an exaggeration, as one of the letters sent to the player claims that Boondoxians usually eat day-old donuts.

At certain donation landmarks, the Boondoxians will send a player a letter informing them how their donations are being used to better Boondox. Also enclosed in certain letters will be a [[feather]]. Donating Bells to Boondox is the only way of obtaining the feathers, and they cannot be bought from [[Tom Nook]]'s catalog. However, if one has obtained these items and moved their character to {{CF}}, one will be able to order them again for under 1,000 Bells.

Boondox will eventually change its name to '''Boondopolis''' after the player donates a total of 3,200,000 [[Bell]]s, becoming a booming metropolis from the players' donations. After this, the players can still continue to donate in order to receive the final feather, the rainbow feather. Despite being a thriving city, the Boondoxians still like to eat mud.

Whether Boondox actually exists is never determined. A [[cranky]] villager may claim that [[Tortimer]] walked past and muttered "I'm having steak tonight!" or that Tortimer's installing a plasma TV at his house after the villager made a donation. These villagers are highly skeptical, asserting, "a coincidence? I think not!'"

Tiny Tommy Hicks is a resident from Boondox that Pelly or Phyllis will tell the player about when they donate a certain amount of Bells to Boondox. He does not appear in the game. He seems to be a reference to Tiny Tim Cratchitt, a character from Charles Dickens novel ''A Christmas Carol'', as well as ''hick'', a term used to refer to an unsophisticated, boorish person. In the novel, Tiny Tim is a small boy around the age of five, who has to use a crutch. He and his family live in poverty and can barely make "ends meet." At the end of the story, he is lifted out of debt by a changed Ebenezer Scrooge, who donates a large sum of money to the Cratchitt family.
