Which US cities have the same latitude as or near to the latitude of Florence Italy?

Answer 1

Stop and think for just a moment. It won't hurt you.

Spain is a country. From its north edge to its south edge it covers more than 530 miles.

How many US cities do you think fit into 530 miles north to south ?

The range of latitude that Spain covers is the same as

-- everything between Nashville TN and Sheboygan, Wisconsin

-- everything between Tulsa and Sioux Falls SD

-- everything between Las Vegas and Boise ID

-- everything from below Fresno CA almost to Eugene OR.

This question could rapidly expand to resemble the one about the cats in the sacks,

when you discover that there are Romes in Georgia, Indiana, Mississippi, New York,

Ohio, and Pennsylvania, each of them defines a latitude that cuts across several

states, and there are several cities or towns on that parallel in each of them.

But since you're looking for a "city in the US" as an answer, it wouldn't be too far-fetched

to conclude that the Rome you're referring to is outside of the US. So I've decided to take

the one in Italy to be the reference-Rome.

That's only half the battle, though. Cities occupy a range of different latitudes ...

especially one like Rome. So I need to pick a reference latitude within the city.

I've selected the location of the "Amministrazione Provinciale de Roma", which,

to my fractured Italian, sounds like a pretty important place. It's located at the

intersection of the Corso Vittorio Emanuele II and Vicolo Savelli, at the latitude

41.8975° North. That's the latitude I'll be looking to match over on the other side

of the pond.

Also in the question, you used the seemingly benign but always toxic "approximately",

which defines the allowable window of accuracy as somewhere between what a

drosophila and a pterodactyl could fly through. Items on the following list include

only towns and cities whose boundaries extend to within 3 miles or less, either side

of the latitude of the Amministrazione:

-- Plymouth, Middleboro, Taunton, Wellfleet, MA

-- Pawtucket, RI

-- Ellington, Windsor, CT

-- Ulster Park, Livingston Manor, NY

-- Milan, Ulysses, Corry, Union City, Albion, PA

-- Ashtabula, OH

-- Monroe, Petersburg, Adrian, Hillsdale, Coldwater, Bronson, Cassopolis, Sawyer, MI

-- Chicago, DeKalb, Rochelle, IL

-- Toronto, Clarence, Mechanicsville, Cedar Rapids, Belle Plaine, Huxley, Coon Rapids, IA

-- Enola, Halsey, Scotts Bluff, NB

-- Yoder, Medicine Bow, Green River, WY

-- Trenton, Plymouth, UT

-- San Jacinto, Jarbridge, NV

-- Willow Ranch, Hornbrook, Fort Dick, Smith River, CA
The center of Rome is at 41 degrees 53 minutes north, but Rome is ENORMOUS, so anywhere from 41 45N to 42N would qualify. However, Providence, Rhode Island is at 41 47N, and Chicago, IL is at 41 50N.

Answer 3

Answer 4

Michigan, Wisconsin, Iowa, Wyoming, Nebraska, South Dakota, Minnesota, Montana, Oregon, Idaho, New York, Vermont and Maine.

Answer 5

Italy stretches quite far North/South. There'll be plenty of US cities in that range.
