The middle of nowhere is a hyperbolic allusion to a place well outside the limits of significance or familiarity for the speaker.
One may talk of being lost in the middle of nowhere (being lost in some very remote place), or someone or something being in or coming from the middle of nowhere (implying insignificant or obscure origins).
Superficially similar but distinct phrases are "out of nowhere," meaning something quite unexpected, and "from nowhere," a pejorative suggesting inanity or worthlessness. Because of their similarity, these phrases are sometimes confused. All three may be Americanisms; the last is probably derived from the usage of a late-19th c. immigrant group, possibly,Yiddish speakers.
The longest Nowhere Rd. in North America is about three miles north of Athens, Georgia. A point equidistant from both ends of that road would be at N 34.01347, W 83.36611, literally the middle of Nowhere.

Podunk
In American English, Podunk, or Podunk Hollow has come to denote something, usually a place, of small size and is often used in a context of dismissing significance or importance. The word Podunk is of Algonquian origin.
There is also Hodunk, Michigan-which is close to where I live and very much in the middle of nowhere!

Half way between the Back of Beyond and the Land That Time Forgot. But you have to wait till the Twelfth of Never to find it and it is only Once in a Blue Moon that anyone recognises it for what it is.
