  1. That sounds like a great project! I’d love to see the map and contribute. Here are a couple of Berkshire colloquial place names that come to mind:

    1. The Hill – Often refers to the elevated area in the center of town.
    2. The Flats – A term used to describe the low-lying areas, particularly near rivers.
    3. The Village – Commonly used to refer to more densely populated areas or neighborhoods within towns.

    If you have specific areas in mind or need corrections on existing names, let me know! Looking forward to seeing how this map evolves.
