"40 degrees north latitude" is the description of a complete circle around the globe.
More than 2,000 miles of that line traverses territory of the continental US, crossing
literally hundreds of cities, states, counties, towns, villages, hamlets, and crossroads.
Here are just a few:
-- Los Molinos, California
-- Sutcliffe, Nevada
-- Santaquin, Utah
-- Boulder, Colorado
-- Superior, Nebraska
-- Sabetha, Kansas
-- La Plata, Missouri
-- Savoy, Illinois
-- Pendleton, Indiana
-- Columbus, Ohio
-- Wheeling, West Virginia
-- Lancaster, Pennsylvania
-- Lakehurst, New Jersey
It depends a little on what you want to call a "city"; some of these are more "town" sized. And there are some other that are close to 48N, but not within about 10 miles.
