Many towns have the same name as another town in a different state.

Can you name at least two towns with the same name? Please give the state, province or country as appropriate. Only one town name (but as many states as you like) per comment, please.

Educate us!

I doubt if there is another town named Boulevard. Our main road through town could be Boulevard Boulevard.
I came from Bethel CT and there is a Bethel Vermont.

Debbie - Could you mean Perris, California?

I don't believe no one has mentioned Rome (NY, GA, Italy)

Also:
Lindenhurst, NY/Lindenhurst, IL
Lima, OH
Vienna, NY (in addition to all the other Viennas already mentioned)
Paris, Turin, New London, Camden and Cairo -- all in NY.

But I'm sure there are boatloads of small towns similarly named (how may Parises, Londons, Romes, Cairos, Moscows are there? Lot's I'd guess . . .) all over the US. I just happened to mention a few examples of those I'm familiar with, here.
