As a non-American, I’m very confused by this. If it’s a town, it’s not rural by definition. Because, you-know, it’s urban.
Also, could we get a definition of town vs small town. Do you not have the concept of a village? (Village in the UK would be a settlement with a population of a couple of thousand, with usually a pub, local shop, maybe a post office and primary school if you’re lucky).
No thanks, America is already confusing enough 👍
But wait there’s more! Like Hamlets which are smaller than a village.
And we haven’t even started getting into the different types of cities: Metropolitis, Twin, Satellite.
It’s ok, we have hamlets here too. I live in one!
Minneapolis is the best of the two twin cities :)
Sorry, St Paul. All you’ve got going is Casetta’s and Can Can Wonderland.
