picture info	Town Managers Of Saugus, Massachusetts A town is a human settlement. Towns are generally larger than villages and smaller than cities, though the criteria to distinguish between them vary considerably in different parts of the world. Origin and use The word "town" shares an origin with the German word , the Dutch word , and the Old Norse . The original Proto-Germanic word, ''tūnan'', is thought to be an early borrowing from Proto-Celtic ''dūnom'' (cf. Old Irish , Welsh ).
