A City? or a Town?

This is the question for today. Are we really a City? What's your opinion? If we discount the transient students, who don't have a permanent address within the city ( are not native to North Adams ) should we in reality call ourselves a CITY?

To answer your question technically, North Adams became a city in April 1895. As to whether we fit the description of a city is up to personal discretion

Technically....yes...logically...? Being a "CITY" gives us many benifets from the state, I believe. being a "Town" (not counting the students) would lower our "gimmies" from the state...Am I correct or am I out in left field some place?.... southview
