To the editor:
The May 2012 issue of Smithsonian Magazine just arrived.
The lead article is titled “The 10 Best Small Towns in America.”
While Brunswick didn’t make the top 10, we didn’t miss by much. Brunswick came in at a respectable 13th out of thousands of small towns in this country, defined as those with populations of less than 25,000.
Next time someone from away asks why you live here, tell them that our town ranks among the top places to visit in the entire United States.
Bob Jorgensen,
Brunswick
