Wtf is the DMV area? And why would you post in the Pittsburgh subreddit asking about people outside of the area?

DC-Maryland-Virginia or Delaware-Maryland-Viriginia, depending on who you ask.

Delaware-Maryland-Virginia is called Delmarva, no one called that the DMV.

You're probably right for the most part, but I absolutely knew people who used DMV for Delaware/Maryland/Virginia, which is why I had to specify "depends on who you ask". I put DC first for a reason though. Never heard of Delmarva though.

I lived in Delaware and never once heard it called the DMV.
Delmarva is the name of the peninsula.

Ah! I'm from central MD, so definitely less familiar with the eastern shore. Thanks for the link, though! I learned something new today. :)
