@futurebird plenty of them up here in Northern New England.

Generally a secondary smaller “town center” within a larger town, but culturally distinct. Often just a village green, general store, church, and maybe a restaurant, sometimes a bit more.

@steve @futurebird Agreed about many of them having become sections of larger cities as they grew. Multnomah Village in Portland and Montclair Village in Oakland are good examples.
