Cities have many more inhabitants than towns and feature taller buildings, wider streets, and more traffic. Towns have fewer inhabitants and most buildings are lower with shorter streets. Both cities and towns provide places for inhabitants to shop, go to school, work, see a doctor, and use transportation, and offer services like street lighting, rubbish collection, festivals, and assistance for those in need. The mayor and councillors govern from the town hall.
