I live in the Atlantic regions of Canada. Here in Halifax, we are known for our lobster. It is probably the best lobster in the world. It comes fresh straight out of the Atlantic Ocean. We make a lot of profit on that.
 
Tulsa Oklahoma. Best know for the Tulsa Race Riot, nothing to brag about
 
Sunshine state,and boy does it live up to it's name.It's also known for hurricanes since most of them come right through here.
 
Oh I forgot to mention Sidney Crosby as well. Future of the NHL right there.
 
Mine is known for being rich.Our city/school nickname is the Williamsport "Millionares"

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Arent you guys known for that big tornado that went and tore up the city back in the 80's?</div>You mean 90's? The bigest one was in the late 90's, early May. For some reason I forgot which day. I should know, because I was in an airplane a few hours before it hit, scary crap. But I guess you could say we are known for the big tornado back in the 80's because there are tornados left and right here
 
Good schools, safe community, good restuarants, good place to raise children. Was rated one of the top 100 places to live in America. My town was ranked like around 80 I think.

To add some more. Tulsa is over weight. Sammy Sosa played Triple A here, Drillers. Tulsa has one of the top 5 worst intersections in the US.This is our monument if you want to call it that...

Someone shot an arrow in his "area" awhile back, it was classic
 
My dad grew up somewhat close to where Mickey Mantle grew up, so that was what his town was known for.

well nothing really, the king ranch, eva longoria went to college here, and a few nfl players played college ball here, like al harris (packers), darrell green (redskins), roberto garza (bears)
 
New City, NY - Nicest town in New York state, great community, best school district in Mid-NY state, safest community in Rockland County. (currently life here)Queens, NY - not much, just in NYC, known for all its different vibes, y'know. (was born and lived here untill i was 5 and go there every other weekend)Woodbridge, NJ (grew up there, when i was 5, lived there untill i was 10) known for its school athletics. it was kind of the hood of that NJ area. i learned how to fight there (had gotten myself in to some street fights, but mainly from my brother, and my MMA class. there was this great place there which teached mixed martial arts)

the Peach State.I can't really elaborate off of that since, I've never seen a peach plantation down here, and I hate peaches.

Cologne Germany - K?lsch beer, best beer in the world, if you disagree, well..you're wrong- the Cologne cathedral- Heidi Klum is from the suburb i live in- cologne was invented here (hence the name)and that's it i guess
 
I live in Bath, UK.Its the second most visited city in the UK after London, and its a World Heritage city, basically most of the buildings are protected and can't be changed. Love it here, although sometimes people don't realise how lucky they are to live in such a great place.The first King of all of England was Crowned here in 973 too.
 
West Michigan.....Chili Peppers singer was born here, Holland Tulip Festival, 25K Riverbank Run, Cherries, WM Whitecaps.
