A better description might be
small CITY. Not a town..
It is incorporated as the city of Middletown, Ohio
51,000 people is a lot of people.
The Sierra Nevada range is impressive but not nearly as much as The Rockies. I spent a few weeks in Colorado Springs one year on business. I can't remember the name of the hotel resort but it was right at the base of the Rockies. Rugged, sheer faces and snow capped peaks.
They were impressive.. The oversized hills we call the Appalachians are just that, large rounded hills .
But the Rockies, especially the Canadian Rockies are just awe inspiring..
The Sierra range is no slouch. I just do not believe they are as quite as huge as the Rockies or Canadian Rockies.
Anyway, those mountain ranges are ALL wondrous to see up close. I like them all....
