Inhabited Beauty

For photos of beautiful, still-inhabited locales! It can be a quick snapshot of your local town, a breathtaking pro photo of a city, or a pic of some fascinating piece of modern life.

The only real rule is that it must be an actively inhabited/used location (ie not ruins or natural locales). Otherwise, go wild. Anything that you find beautiful or interesting!

The Appalachians run from Alabama to Newfoundland, CA. The highest point is only ~6,600 ft today due to erosion but the range is among the oldest in the world the oldest sections being estimated 1.2 billion years old.

The ones pictured probably aren't even 2,000 ft but they'd still be apart of the Appalachian mountain range.
