Its because the developer seems to have spent most of the games texture budget in that one place

Have you made it be that blurry or is the game really that bad?
While the textures do look nice, it seems very bright inside, is the lighting a bit dodgy or is it generally okay?

Blurry? The images are fine here. Could be the I took most of the screenshots whilst they were moving.

Wooo I recognize all that.

EDIT, from your pic, I live here ( yes I managed to find my house, due to the lake in the park near it which I spotted on your screenshot) :
Cool, glad you enjoyed the scenic aerial shots from your town of residence. I just remember it when I lived there as a kid. Funny how some things seems to have changed so much, yet still so much is recognisable. If I get a chance, will try to get a screenshot of that area where you live, the scenery is amazingly high quality, I am sure you could pick out your house easily.
crash into it..
see if your house goes BOOM in rl
Already tried, didn't work
It depends on several factors, the quality of the scenery itself especially what they used as original source (the NL2000v4 scenery was taken with high quality satellite imagery just a few years old) also depends how many pixels per metre they deliver it as (most older scenery is 1M per pixel or greater, meaning smaller install size but much less detail, esp close up) whereas max can be 7CM pp which is extremely detailed but very very heavy on install size, ie more data plus it more taxing on your PC, not so much FPS but disk access and memory storage of all this data. That leads into the other factor, hardware, the better your hardware, the better the ability cope with FSX in general, not just FPS but handling of vast resource and photo real data. The last factor is settings, FSX is pretty old but there many way to improve its performance for your PC by using the correct tweaks and they vary from system to system. You need to experiment which work best for your system. One of the most important tweaks/fsx.cfg changes for photoreal scenery is LOD_Radius, default is 4.50000, mine is 9.50000 but again, depends on what your PC can handle.
EDIT: alas this highly detailed scenery is prone to 'blurries' especially if you fly fast. The sweet spot for my PC/system is @60-80knots, I can use jets but then I slow down time compression to 1/2 or 1/4, so flying at 250knots will only be @60knots at 1/4 time compression, so blurries become less. In theory, the more powerful PC hardware is becoming, the better FSX as a whole will run.
About your generic look, that sounds like default FSX landscape, if you do install any scenery, make sure it is added to the library otherwise it will not show up. Most scenery nowadays though should add themselves automatically. Anyways, hope it help, use the web to check out about tweaks etc, plenty of info about it.
In the meantime, here is another series on this amazing scenery, this time using my favourite KLM liveries, enjoy:

S.T.A.L.K.E.R SHoC L.U.R.K 1.1
Definitive STALKER SHoC Mod in my opinion, beautiful yet brutal. Everything has been re-done pretty much from the ground up in both the graphical and gameplay aspects. If you're a hard-core S.T.A.L.K.E.R fan I strongly suggest that you try this out.
I've been following the development for about a year or so now and 1.1 was just recently released.
