Exmore is the largest town in Northampton County. It is on the Eastern Shore of the U.S. state of Virginia. The population was 1,473 at the 2020 census.[2] A popular story is that Exmore got its name because it is the tenth railroad station south of the Delaware state line, so there were "X more" stations left on a passenger's journey.[5]
