Union Town Sues Union City Over Naming Decision

It's been over a century since the cities were founded in Western Pensylvania. As time has gone on, both towns have developed at different paces with one becoming somewhat populated while the other.... Well.....


Union Town is a city just south of Pittsburgh. It's population is not large by any means. Nonetheless, it has more of a righ to be called a city considering it has more industry.


Union City on the other hand, has been nicknamed the armpit of Pensylvania for a reason. With a population of less than three thousand people, it is often wondered why they even have the term "city" to describe thier tiny little slum.


Union Town has a population of over nine thousand people. Much like the so called Union City, their population has been declining for years. The difference being that they still have some industry and more than three times the population.


So why are the names the way they are? The obvious answer is that some moron in Union Dump thought that they would one day become a metropolis down the road. More than one hundred years later, we find this isn't the case. Instead, the miniscule wretch they call Union City is a complete wasteland of useless buildings that serve no purpose other than to exist.


Meanwhile, Union Town, which should rightfully be named Union City, not only has a slight bit more industry and more population, but also loads of crime, making it a perfect candidate for the name Union City.


It's unlikely that a name change will take place anytime soon. And yes, the title of this article was clickbait. Ask if I give a crap. Creating this article was still worth it because it gave the Venango Republic a chance to take a shot at the armpits of Western Pensylvania.
