I less than a mile from the austin texas city limits bortle 7+ skies . If your unaware the bortle scale is a scale for how dark the ski is at your location ranging tom 1 to 9
1 is the darkest skies in the middle of nowhere (think bid bend national park and the equivalent) 5 is typical surburban skies
9 is the middle of a big city like houston chicago or new york
