Just curious. 

depends if you mean by american terms 

an american in Houston may say they live near Laredo due to being 335 miles away  - Length of Scotland is 264 miles from top to bottom - so everyone could live near the highlander filming 

Everyone should be within a 4-5 hour drive at longest from most of the film sites 

I think it takes 14 hours to drive east to west texas as a comparator

Just to be pedantic.  Some of it was filmed in New York.  I don't live near New York.

Machrihanish to Durness would be 7 hours and 33 minutes.  You would also go near some of the places where Highlander was filmed.

I was just checking how long Scotland was by car. Stranraer to Thurso seemed a bit of a drive.

Yes.  I realise.  It was a good shout.  About 361 miles.

However it includes a fair amount of fast road.

Machrihanish to Durness is less than 300 miles but it will take longer because of the roads you will use.
