Some think that it feels large, but when you squeeze 40,000 people into 10 sq. miles, that's what you get. Lynchburg has 52 sq. miles to fit its 75,000 people- obviously with less of an urban feel. Being European, the lack of density is probably not appealing. Badger has a good suggestion- Madison, WI. Wouldn't that cold weather be up your alley?
Spot on! The restaurants are expensive and poor quality, which explains why they go out of business so quickly. Poor planning makes a town of 40,000 have traffic problems, which is utterly ridiculous. They are also under the impression that it is a city!
