I like them. I prefer it to dense urban, suburban, or rural areas. It really depends on what you consider a small town though. If we're talking under 30 or 40 thousand, then I've only lived in three: Price, Utah(about 10,000), Kodiak, Alaska(6,000), and Dodge City, KS(25,000). I lived in Rockland, ME but that was when I was little and I don't remember it. Next up going into medium cities I lived in Bellingham, WA (around 80,000) and Lynchburg, VA (73,000 but the metro area is about 200,000), Wilmington, NC (340,000). The only really big metro area I've lived in was Norfolk, which is a bit over 2 million.
I think I prefer the medium cities because they have that small town atmosphere in a lot of ways, but access to most of the big chains and malls, and they still have unique neighborhoods.
Lived there in 1992.
