My town is Vega Baja and is know for the sugar cane processing and the oranges and is in Puerto Rico, in the north coast.
Why thumbs down? Nakita asked you for your town and why is known for, she didn't asked for any advise nor something like that, so this question isn't to be rated in a negative way. Come on.

I'm from a town called Stroud in Oklahoma. There are 3 other Strouds in the world: Australia, Canada and England. At one time we were all known for making bricks. We have an International Brick and Rolling Pin throwing contest every year.

Well gosh, let's see. Mansfield has the Reformatory which appeared in the movie The Shawshank Redemption. And just up the road at Malabar Farm, we have the big house where none other than Bogey and Bacall got married. Whee.

Seymour was home to the first motorized vehicle built in Indiana
In 1866 the Reno Gang, led by brothers Frank, Simeon, and William, perpetrated the world's first train robbery just east of Seymour.
Seymour had the first commercial chewing gum factory in this country. Asa M. Fitch invented "Fitch's Chewing Gum" in 1876; popular in Central Indiana, the factory was located at Cincinnati Avenue near what is now know as O'Brien Street.

The town I live in now is very small and known for nothing, which is just the way I like it. As long as commercialization, industrialization, and housing development stay away, I'll keep staying here.
