I always liked Athol, Massachusetts.

And Bird-In-Hand, Pennsylvania.

Bellows Falls, Vermont is ripe with potential.

@farmerman,
no no no. The town changed its name after the television show.

@roger,
Actually it happened back when it was on radio in 1950. Some sort of contest for the popular T-or-Q radio game show’s 10th Anniversary. The name just stuck afterwards. It was originally Hot Springs, NM.
