2 mins confidence: 
at a distance from the border/ close to the border Explanation: or: bordering/ not bordering. Hope that helps -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2002-08-10 10:38:26 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- bordering/ not bordering reicht wahrscheinlich völlig aus. Hört man auch am meisten. Alles andere ist zu lang ;-) |

5 mins confidence: 
close to the border / a long way from the border(s) Explanation: a grenznahe Region could also be a border region / area. Difficult without more context, you may need to work them into your sentence a bit!

In Britain, grenzfern could probably be rendered as \'inland\', but that wouldn\'t necessarily work in other countries! |

50 mins confidence:
border regions / non-border regions Explanation: There are quite a few Google hits for this, although it doesn't sound too elegant, and perhaps doesn't incorporate extreme distance...but it's short and to the point! hth |
