      Admittedly,its been years since I've been their,and currently its in the news for the wrong reason,but the times I've been to Whitesburg Kentucky I always felt like it was a nice little town. I also thought it was Pretty. Now Williamstown Kentucky isn't as Pretty as Whiteburg but its not a bad place to live. While I don't know much about it I stopped to eat once in La'Follete Tennessee and thought it was very Pretty countryside and for some reason that I can't figure out I got the impression that it was Peaceful as well. Don't know if its really that way or if I was just enamored with the Countryside.

    This video stirred something deep within me. There’s something truly magical about small towns, isn’t there? They each have their own story, a heartbeat that can only be felt by those who visit. As you were talking about places like Fair Hope and Eureka Springs, I couldn’t help but wonder - what’s it really like to live there, to wake up every day surrounded by such beauty and history? Does it feel like time slows down, or do you still feel the rush of life? I feel like these places could change you forever.

    Small town in Washington i loved was St. John, WA. population was only about 500 people. Great little town after living there for a while but like many small towns, if you were not born there you will always be an outsider. But still a very easy going little town with no street lights or stop signs . Definately no traffic since the streets roll up at 6PM . But they do have some nice town events several times a year.

    There's 2 things you can really say about the statistics of these votes:
    1. If a town gets 90+% of the votes, it is exceptionally nice
    2. If a town gets less than 20% of votes, the state is littered with great small towns

    The entirety of Connecticut isn't stuffed into Bridgeport, Hartford and New Haven. Most of the rest of the state is pretty rural.
    Brownville, NE is a pretty nice town with a lot of tourist interests. The Spirit of Brownville dinner river cruise is always a good evening. There's good golf in the area too. I've played about 18 of them if I remember correctly. It's actually Brownville, but everybody calls it Brownsville. Don't know why, but maybe because it slips off the tongue easier.

    As far as Nevada is concerned, there’s not an abundance of small towns to choose from. Virginia City is a nice, historic little town, but Boulder City to the east of Las Vegas is probably the most charming and uniquely located little town in the state. Beautiful, historic and geographically separate from bigger nearby cities such as Vegas and Henderson.

    Briggs, where are you getting your stock photos? What is shown at 29:37 is NOT Lambertville NJ. There is no city skyline anywhere near there - it's a sleepy little historic town on the Delaware River. Once again, NJ is being misrepresented.
