Modesto and Stockton. Sounds like a law firm.

Depends on your definition but I think it's Camaiore proper. There are a handful of closer places I haven't visited that are large enough to count but I've travelled through them many times and have probably stopped in all.

If we're talking large-ish cities, I live close enough to Trenton, NJ but have never been there. As far as PA cities go, I don't believe I've ever stopped in York, but I've driven through it.

New Jersey governance is so icky, I'm surrounded by a dozen boroughs I've never even heard of, encircled by the townships.

Helmetta, NJ (population 2,500) appears to be geographically closest while South River, NJ (population 16,000) appears to be the closest to drive through, but I wouldn't take the jug handle if not to cross the highway.

Among the top 10 cities of NJ, I have never been to Paterson (unsurprisingly) nor do I recall visiting Elizabeth (mildly surprisingly). On the map, I've been to green for sure. Not certain on the yellow.

I prefer to discuss these matters in terms of Metropolitan Areas. I'm aching to go to both Vineland, NJ and Reading, PA to be able to cross them off. I can convince no one to go with me to the first.

I've lived in DC for a short enough time and without a car that there are quite a few nearby cities and towns I haven't visited. I'm gonna say either Takoma Park, MD; Potomac, MD; or Lake Barcroft, VA. I might have briefly passed through one or more of them, but never spent significant time in any.

For Seattle, it's almost definitely Beaux Arts Village, a town which you could easily convince me is just a legend and not a real place.

Only considering ones of a significant size, it's probably Augusta GA.

I have been to Duluth, but only a LONG time ago and I barely remember it...probably close to 30 years ago at this point. If I was shooting to attend the DFL convention this year I'd have a reason to go...but I'm not.

The closest city of notable size to me I've never been to at all in my life and also the largest city in Minnesota I've never been to is Winona. I've been to Winona County, but only the rural western part, not the city of Winona itself.

Also pretty sure I've never been to Wausau, WI.

I have never been anywhere in St. Bernard Parish, even though it shares a border with New Orleans. The closest cities to me in StB would be Arabi or Chalmette.

I haven't lived in Oregon for very long and don't own a car, so I haven't been to many of the towns near where I live. I've driven through Veneta and spent time in Lowell, so it has to be Creswell. As for more sizable cities, I've never been to Corvallis.

In North Carolina, I've never been to Lansing, in northern Ashe County. There are a lot of unincorporated areas that are more significant than some incorporated towns in that part of the world, so if you want a town that actually matters, I've never been to Sparta or even to Allegheny County, nor to Mount Airy. Sadly I probably won't for the foreseeable future since county collecting in rural NC as a visibly trans person seems a little dicey.

I have been to Duluth, but only a LONG time ago and I barely remember it...probably close to 30 years ago at this point. If I was shooting to attend the DFL convention this year I'd have a reason to go...but I'm not.

The closest city of notable size to me I've never been to at all in my life and also the largest city in Minnesota I've never been to is Winona. I've been to Winona County, but only the rural western part, not the city of Winona itself.

Also pretty sure I've never been to Wausau, WI.

You should go! I've actually taken the train through Winona and really thought it looked nice. The views of the bluffs across the river are absolutely stunning, and it looked like an attractive small town.

Dang. I live in central Ohio and just realized that unless one counts itty bitty towns and villages, the nearest city I haven't been to is probably Gary indiana! Haven't been to Chicago either outside of layovers at O'Hare.
