I grew up on a farm outside a small town. My high school grad class had just under 100 people and most were related to each other. Town has grown; it now has three stop lights and two restaurants but still one of the smallest in my state.2

3 stop lights - anything more than 1 is considered the city -
I remember visiting family here in tx coming from ks - and I thought this place was huge 😂 and my grandparents even had MTV it was the best thing to me - we had local cable in my town but only CMT for music channels - some of my friends had satellite and had it but we was too poor for that nonsense2 -

Ha - my town was the county seat too - we had 5 towns that went to our high school 😂 - we didn’t get the stop light till I had graduated and moved down south - 😂1 -
Small. 1 traffic light. More tractors and combines on the road than trucks.4

Middle, 40,000 + people both where I grew up and town I currently live in is about this size as well.
I love small towns. We bought our house ten years ago with nothing around and it was great, great, great! Now we have a humongous Walmart one mile down the road, the second one in this city and the third within an 8 mile drive. We have 176,537,439 restaurants churches, bakeries, gyms, dry cleaners, and auto parts stores within a two mile range now, too.3 -
Grew up in a place of around 3,500 but there were 5 communities within the zip code. My eight grade class had 14 students and the 7th/8th grades shared a classroom. We had to go to another town for high-school and that graduating class was around 80 kids. I moved to the big city around 18 years ago with a population of 67,000 people. Miss living back at home every. single. day.4

I kinda grew-up in a small little place down in Southern California that called itself "The City of Angels".

I don't mention this too often online, as many people tend to reach blindly for some sense of personal offence, but yes…. I grew up in a little community called Swastika (Swas-TEE-ka), populated by maybe 1500. There was very little there when I was a kid. I grew up splitting firewood for heat, fetching water from the spring down the road, and emptying the inhouse porta-potty-type-thing every day as there wasn't indoor plumbing until my teens.
The nearest town, Kirkland Lake, was where we went to school and worked. It was a 10 minute drive, or a 1.5hr walk (which I did almost daily). Even at its peak mining days, it couldn't breach the 10,000 person mark.
…….and now you know, lol.
