Ponyville is almost as much an [[Everytown America]] as it's a [[Quirky Town]]. A small town that has a one-room school, and no visible dedicated village police nor guard (so far), but somehow always has many ponies wandering through it or stopping to watch the latest distraction somepony has set up. [[Painting the Frost On Windows|We have also seen the ponies have to care directly for nature]], so being far from it would create long commutes for a society that seems to lack [[Schizo Tech|either internal combustion engines or a surrogate]].

My guess is that Ponyville was incorporated as a town in the middle of large areas of farmland and wildland (Applejack's orchard and Fluttershy's meadow aren't alone); although they have a bakery, dress shop, and other non-agricultural specialty stores, it's main function is as a central place where they can come in and get supplies, or sell what they have at market without having to go all the way to Trottingham.

He's somewhat of a jerk, but only in the sense that he likes trolling. He realized he had went top far with Rarity after she yelled at him, but he was a little freaked out by her anger. The reason why he's so close to Rarity in ''Sweet and Elite''? When he found out that Rarity was in Canterlot, he tracked her down to apologize.

Without Rarity acting like some (in his eyes) [[Gold Digger|gold digging]] w-[[Last Second Word Swap|horse]], he doesn't act like a jackass to her, and shares something he may actually like, like blimps.

Addendum 2.5: After extensive contact with Carrot Top through multiple manifestations, the Derpy avatars have begun developing a new personality which is friendly towards her, and therefore will possibly serve her instead of The Derpy One's will. This is EXACTLY according to [[The Chessmaster|Carrot Top's]] plans.

TL,DR: Derpy Hooves is actually not one pony but an [[Eldritch Abomination]] that manifests through Derp eyes. Said manifestations become much easiler on targets going through [[Sanity Slippage]]. If you make a Derp face, you risk [[Replacement Goldfish|being erased from existence and replaced with a Derpy clone]]. [[Nightmare Fuel|And no one]] [[Paranoia Fuel|will ever notice]]. [[Ret Gone|After all, you never existed.]][[Hope Spot|Fortunately]], Carrot Top is working to oppose Derpy and defeat it with [[The Power of Friendship]].

As we've learned, the Season Two closeout is a [[Shout Out]] to the recent royal wedding. It could be possible that most of the second half of the season would have as a linking theme the need to find a bride with a severe case of the jitters. Eventually, of course, [[Hidden in Plain Sight|her disguise as a cross-eyed Pegasus pony]] would slip and we'd be off to the races.

At least not canonically; if he were ever to have a real role in the show, it would be quite impossible for his portrayal to be the same as it is in fanfics, due to the obvious copyright issues.
