Default OT: How small is your hometown?

Mine is pretty small, and I wondered if there were any smaller ones out there! So here you go!

Default Re: OT: How small is your hometown?

I just did the poll. I'm in a 5000 to 10000 range. This town used to be about 5000 or less people. But it's grown to about 8000 to 10000. It's probably around 13000 during the summer. We got a SMALL amusment park thing here in this town that draws people during the summer to come. It's got a few small costers and stuff in it. It gives us folks here something to do when there's nothing else better to do. But that's my town.

I live in a fair sized town (about 70,000+) but there is this small 'village' I drive thru to ski, Omeme, Population 900 and in the middle of the boonies.

Well, the village I grew up in wass picture postcard traditional English and about 900 people - great place, 3 pubs on the village green, cricket played on it etc

Where I live now is a town of about 10,000 - still pretty but I do miss the feel of village life

I grew up in a town with about 450 people (Erm, the Netherlands), there was a large campground nearby, so in the summer the population would be around 2000. There also was an even smaller village nearby with only four farms. I now live in a town of about 30.000.

Mine is very small; a quaint little town of 10.5 million people...

Of course where I live now where it is about 9 hundred thousand, it is a lot more pleasant.

Well, depending on what you call my hometown, the answer is different.

Born in San Diego, which I believe is pushing 3 million now.

Grew up (age 6-18) in the "Village of Rocky Grove", outside of Franklin. The city is around 5,000 while the village would barely push 500.

I voted Less Than 5,000
