Hi, my question is, are places that don't have a big population and have a small town feel and are fairly distant from the big cities themselves, but are located in the metropolitan areas of those big cities considered part of small town america?? Examples of these kinds of towns are: Katy, tx;(In houston metro-area) Milton, fl;(In pensacola metro-area) and cooper city, fl (In south florida tri-county metro-area) what do y'all think?

It's a suburb of a large town. Meaning close to the large city, but a small town.

I do understand what a small town is and what a big city is, but you asked what we consider those as, so i'll give you my opinion. Anything under 50k = Small Town 50k-100k = Suburb 100k-500k = Big town 500k-1mil = Small City 1mil-5mil = City 5mil-10mil = Big City 10mil+ = Major city I come from a rather large city, so maybe that's why I think this way. I don't know. Anywhere that has under 500k people to me is small. I'm quite a city person. Hope I helped! Claudia♥

Well I grew up in a small town that was 50 miles from a larger metropolitan which population is about 70,000 people. The town I am from is about 2,300 people, we had no hospital, movie theater, mall, department store. We did have a couple grocery stores, a pharmacy, and some restaurants.
I consider that to be real small town, totally isolated from a metropolis. The ones you mentioned I would consider to be suburbs.

I think that if you are that close to a big city you might as well be in the city. A small town would be like 25000 ppl and you would have to drive at least an hour to get to a big city.

To me a small town is a low population, very few places to shop or eat, and no surrounding big cities. Kind of like a nowhere town :)

IMHO these places are still in the city..... where I came from you're a city slicker if you live in a place that has around 10,000 people.
