Rockstar North, the dev team that created the GTA games and RDR, live right up the road from me.

Sean Connery was born here.

Author of Sherlock Holmes was born here.

Author of Treasure Island was born here.

First animal was to be cloned here.

Edinburgh?

There's literally nothing interesting about my town.

EDIT: Liam Neeson was born very close to where I live. I've actually seen the little cottage he was born in.

the weird people in the catfish documentary live up the street from me

anatomy of a murder was filmed here

Uhh, it's where Mars, the Chocolate producer is located.

It was ranked the #1 worst area in the State in terms of Crimes committed this year.

For an Australian town, it's really cold, and the Sun is obscured by clouds for 9 months of the year.

One of the most important Swedish political events of the year, the Almedal week, is hosted here.

There's also the Medieval Week, due to all of the ruins and such here. Old defense walls, churches, strongholds, you name it. the city has a rich history due to it's strategic location (on an island in the Baltic, off the coast from mainland Sweden).

We also have the Gotland Game Conference hosted ere, due to the video game development educations that are held in the city. I'm currently studying one, in fact.

Cheat · September 16, 2015, 01:46:33 PM

There's a haunted house here that was in a few books and documentaries on TV.

CIS · September 16, 2015, 01:50:45 PM

There's a Native American historical site not too far out of my town.

Kiwicake · September 16, 2015, 02:28:03 PM

Weta Workshop, the guys who do a ton of amazing physical and special effects for movies and stuff are located here

Oh and there's a Masquerade/Cosplay type thing and a board game gathering in the autumn as well.

Dietrich Six · September 16, 2015, 03:06:35 PM

It's got a lighthouse, and we had a season of American horror story based on the town.
Plus it was part of the galactic railroad.
