100 Best Small Towns in America to Live In or Visit "From New York and L.A. to Chicago and Miami, the United States is home to some of the buzziest big cities in the world. But anyone who’s enjoyed a quiet afternoon swinging on a front porch or hiking up colorful mountains knows America’s small towns are, in their own way, just as appealing. It’s here where you’ll find people who welcome you like family, in addition to some of the most astonishing landscapes in the U.S. While America's larger cities are definitely worth a visit (or multiple), this list focuses on lesser-known towns with 10,000 residents or fewer. From a Colorado mountain resort to a bayside beauty in Maine, keep these small towns — ranked from most to least populated — in mind the next time you want to go somewhere new, unexpected and totally charming. Here are the best small towns in America to live in or visit. Sedona, Arizona Population: 9,684 Where to stay: Adobe Grand Villas Why it’s a great small town: Big cities get all the credit for art events and alternative lifestyles, but Sedona proves small towns have just as much to offer. Surrounded by the arid Arizona desert, this town attracts nature lovers with the canyons and giant rock formations of Red Rock State Park. It is also a sort of congregation point for neo-hippies and the spiritually inclined. If you’re more into boho chic and comfort than desert camping, the town has plenty of that as well. Fun fact: Sedona has been a filming site in over 90 films, with stars like Robert De Niro, Elvis Presley and Humphrey Bogart spending time shooting movies here. Fairfield, Iowa Population: 9,416 Where to stay: AmericInn by Wyndham Fairfield Why it’s a great small town: Fairfield was first settled in the mid-1800s and hosted the first and second Iowa State Fairs. Also of note, this small town established the first library in the entire state — it was the first Carnegie Library outside of Pennsylvania and Scotland. Andrew Carnegie himself even funded it. Today, this small community has become an epicenter for Transcendental Meditation, with one of the world's largest training centers. All the feel-goodness in this town carries over into other aspects as well. There are 150 nonprofits and 400 start-up companies here, and the town is attempting to become sustainable in support of the environment. Fun fact: Transcendental Meditation is practiced at the Maharishi International University." Continue reading in the article below. #mygovus #buildingbettercommunities #governmentsoftwaresolutions

Consultant | Strategic Urban Planning & Community Management | Conflict Resolution Facilitator, Trainer & Practitioner | Sustainable Development & Corporate Responsibility
Recently, I had the honor of participating as a speaker at the Municipal Seminar on Planning and Territorial Ordering in Villa Altagracia, Dominican Republic. This important community event was organized by the Foundation for the Development of Villa Altagracia (FUDEVA), as part of the "Legacy Cities Community of Practice" project of the Lincoln Institute of Land Policy - Latin America and the Caribbean. Highlights from my presentation: Strategic Planning for Sustainable Development: The discussion underscored the critical importance of comprehensive strategic planning for sustainable development and collective well-being. We emphasized the need for effective coordination and smooth collaboration among various sectors and actors. Innovation and Creativity in Urban Solutions: The session addressed the urgency of fostering innovation and creativity to tackle current urban and territorial challenges. We focused on innovative and practical solutions. Empowerment and Community Equity: We highlighted the importance of community empowerment within the planning process. We aligned with the principles of equity and the strengthening of social networks to achieve more inclusive results. Collaboration and Feedback: We underscored the importance of constant feedback and collaboration among community managers. This is crucial for exchanging experiences, developing synergies, and creating effective spaces for communication and continuous learning. I extend my deepest thanks to all the organizers and participants for their dedication and valuable contributions. I am excited about the prospect of continuing to collaborate on these fundamental efforts. #StrategicPlanning #TerritorialOrdering #SustainableDevelopment #CommunityEmpowerment #Innovation

**Definition of "Townie":** A "townie" is a slang term used to describe someone who is a local resident of a town or city, often implying that they have lived there for a long time and have a strong connection to the area. The term can sometimes carry a connotation of being somewhat insular or lacking in broader experiences beyond their hometown. **Examples and Sentences:** 1. "He’s a true townie, knowing every street and local hangout in our small town." 2. "When she moved to the city, she found the locals to be very friendly, but they were definitely townies." 3. "The townie often gives newcomers tips on where to find the best local food." 4. "At the high school reunion, the townies reminisced about the good old days while others had moved away." 5. "Even though she’s a townie, she’s open to meeting people from different backgrounds." 6. "The townie mentality can sometimes make it hard for outsiders to fit in." 7. "He’s proud of being a townie and loves sharing stories about the town’s history." 8. "The annual town fair is a big event for the townies, who look forward to it all year." 9. "As a townie, she knows all the hidden spots that tourists usually miss." 10. "The townie had strong opinions about how the town should be run, based on years of local experience." **Hashtags:** - #Townie - #LocalResident - #HometownPride - #SmallTownLife - #LocalKnowledge - #CommunityConnection - #TownLife - #HometownHeritage - #LocalCulture - #TownieLife

𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗱𝗼 𝘄𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗮𝗿𝗲? 🤔 It is often said that knowledge is power. Here at the Committee for Greater Hobart, research is one of the key tools we are using to focus our thinking and start conversations about the future of our region. As part of our foundation research, our 𝗚𝗿𝗼𝘄𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗖𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝗥𝗲𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁 has shed light on what is happening in five cities around the world that have a lot in common with Greater Hobart – Austin, Texas; Auckland, New Zealand; Ljubljana, Slovenia; Portland, Oregon; and Coffs Harbour, New South Wales. The research focused on what these cities have done to improve their economies and the lives of their people, and how they’ve tapped into their regional advantages. The Report is not designed for us to make recommendations or come up with the answers – it simply provides food for thought/discussion on what might work for Greater Hobart. One of the key themes to come out of the research was 𝗟𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗿𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 - looking at population density, a key driver of diversity, vibrancy and culture; and how the other cities manage high densities through diversity of housing and multi-modal transport. Next week we will be holding a workshop with Committee Members to discuss the State Government’s 𝗞𝗲𝗲𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗛𝗼𝗯𝗮𝗿𝘁 𝗠𝗼𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗥𝗲𝗴𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁 𝗣𝗹𝗮𝗻. 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵𝘁𝘀?

New article by The New Republic – The Strange Villainization of the Walkable City "Imagine you live in a town where everyday essentials like work, food, school, health care, and cultural activities all lie within a quick walk or bike ride from people's homes. Your city has reduced residents' reliance on car travel, freed you from your hellish commutes, and reconnected communities with one another. Public transit is reliable, concrete expanses have been transformed into lush green space, and carbon emissions are plummeting." https://lnkd.in/e6A9EvAK
