This community is small. It may not feel like the Sperling population is correct, but when you take into account the boundary lines, it makes sense.
People that had bad experiences where they grew up tend to have negatively slanted views of the area. This seems to be the case with "Sandra". Although Montesano may not be desirable for all, it is close to the idyllic American small town.
