Does your hometown have any fun nicknames?
I don't live there anymore but my hometown is westland,michigan. It's referred to as wasteland. It's not that bad I never understood why it got dubbed wasteland.

I live in downtown Toronto Canada and it has two nicknames.
Older Torontonians refer to Toronto just as the northern Native Indians referred to Toronto, which was "The Big Smoke", in reference to Toronto producing a lot of coal smoke when coal was burned to generate electricity.
Toronto's other nickname is "Hogtown" because Toronto is where the vast majority of Canadian livestock end their journey at the Toronto Stock Yards.
