Small Towns

[Bunwahaha [still dunno why, but well, so be it]]

Some are good, some are bad.

Mine, 40,000, is not so bad, decent, misses nothing very important technically, but misses of energy/animation/perspectives, but I don't think it's the case for all, at least here in France, depends on culture and/or wealth and/or geographical situation (proximity of a big city, mountain/seaside/countryside/urban area, etc...).

40,000 people is a small town?

Oh yah, or maybe in English town would be enough? We haven't several words in French like 'town' and 'city', we have only 'ville', and 'village' which is for something under 3,000 in the mind of people I'd say. Then for me, mine is a small ville, I would consider a medium ville an about 70,000 metropolis to 150,000, and over I'd call it big ville. The difference between town and city might mix me up.
