They're not.
The Godlee Observatory for example is in the center of Manchester.
1000s of people have home observatories in their back yard. I can upload some photos taken from Houston's concrete jungle if you like...I thought you were smarter than this vincent...lolol -

lolol no.
Have you ever actually used a telescope other than a $50 one from Macys?
Here's a couple of pics a club member took from his backyard in a suburb of Houston (Tomball). Along with is notes:
Here’s a couple of images from my backyard in Tomball I did on 8/7/2021. It was 3am and I was fighting mosquitos and heat, but I prevailed. C11 EdgeHD, Televue 2x barlow, ASI462MC, FireCapture, AutoStakkert, Registax. I’m not satisfied with the focus on Jupiter but I’m not done with it yet.
And here is my scope (not my photo but this is the model I've got), the Celestron Evolution 9.25

2021-11-23 at 8:37 PM UTCthe lower-mid state of Utah on a clear night in mid December is probably an awesome place in the USA to skyview. some high desert region with a 360 degree view with no mountains. or right over the border of nevada going into Utah at the salt flats. you're still 200-300 miles from Salt Lake city to have light polution.
I would say Alaska but it's too far north and the northern lights might cause light pollution.
but a moonless night in Utah is the farthest from most major cities.
either that or out on the ocean away from large ships would be a great place. -

lol. by his own admission the photos that he took was less than satisfactory and the reason being the air, not the focus.
and in assstronomical terms, the resolution of the picts he took was monocular-tier. -

Um I've been an amateur astronomer since I was 7...and have had many telescopes in that time...there is no midlife crisis unless you can have one at age 7
Don't be jealous of my vast experience across many fields and my ability to support them with the equipment I need.

its ok, i gave up on asstronomy right after shoemaker crashed into jupiter. our class was given a chance to see jupiter thru the reflective telescope and it was so small i had to squint to see it.
i knew right then and there attempting to look at stars from earth is retarded. -

I still have the sketches of that event in my observations notebook.
Sounds like you were using a shitty high street telescope

thats my point. if the biggest blob of gasses in the solar system appear that small in an amateur "telescope" then looking at real galaxies and nebuleas are nigh impossible.
much less actual stars. -

Wrong again young fella me lad.
Take a look at the ring nebular, dumbbell nebular, Orion nebular...star clusters like M13...all look great through a decent telescope...add a camera and you can take photos like this...another one taken from someone's front yard here in the Houston area.
The Andromeda Galaxy from my front yard this past weekend.
Celestron RASA 11
ZWO ASI6200MC
Skywatcher EQ8R
Celestron LPR enhancement
40 x 300s lights
