Not exactly. In fact, the Levites were given no territory whatsoever in the Promised Land.References:Numbers 18:24 - "For the tithes of the children of Israel, which they offer up as a heave offering to the Lord, I have given to the Levites as an inheritance; therefore I have said to them, 'Among the children of Israel they shall have no inheritance.' "Deuteronomy 18:1, 2 - "The priests, the Levites - all the tribe of Levi - shall have no part nor inheritance with Israel; they shall eat the offerings of the Lord made by fire, and His portion. Therefore they shall have no inheritance among their brethren; the Lord is their inheritance, as He said to them."
Amanda Levites's birth name is Amanda Marie Levites.
The tribe of Levi - Levites did not inherit land as the other 11 tribes did. They were to care for the temple and live in towns owned by the other tribes.Numbers 35:8 The towns you give the Levites from the land the Israelites possess are to be given in proportion to the inheritance of each tribe: Take many towns from a tribe that has many, but few from one that has few."
Amanda Levites is 5' 5".
Generally, the Levities in ancient Israel lived in cities, since they were not entitled to a share in the land but were, instead, recipients of a share of the tithes. Today, Levites live just like any other Jews and are mixed more or less at random through the Jewish population.
The Levites were a priestly tribe and served in the Temple.
The word "Levites" is in the King James Version of the Bible 265 times. It is in 237 verses. Please see the related link below.

The nickname for these two cities is The Twin Cities. The cities are similar and located right next to each other.
Book of Numbers. 14Thus shalt thou separate the Levites from among the children of Israel: and the Levites shall be mine. 15 And after that shall the Levites go in to do the service of the tabernacle of the congregation: and thou shalt cleanse them, and offer them for an offering.The Levites were choses because God required them to look after the religious artifacts which were used by the priests, particularly the tabernacle.
The Levites were set apart by God approximately 4000-5000 BC as mentioned in the book of Leviticus in the Old testament. They were set apart to be the preists of the Tribes of Israel, and it was their job to see that all of the laws God set out were followed. As to "why the Levites"? It seems to me that each tribe was sort of given a job (perhaps based off their tendency toward a certain type of labor. Some were farmers, some were herders, some were builders...) and the Levites, for whatever reason, were chosen as the Priests. If there's more to it than that, I've never heard.
