Wondering how to edit this U.S. City Entry?
The WikiProject U.S. Cities standards might help.

New Mayor

Paul Hurley didn't ask the council to re-ppoint him, so former mayor and councilman Douglas Weberling has been selected. Hurley will likely be appointed Vice Mayor.

Incorporated

Bristol, Virginia was incorporated 1891 as the city of Goodson.

Tri Cities

Are both Bristols part of the Tri Cities? Why isn't it the Quad Cities? --Gbleem 04:14, 12 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

They kind of "count" it is One city, for some odd reason...

I brought that up to the mayor once, and he said he had never thought of it.

"Bristol, Virginia ranks near the bottom of Virginia localities in education, healthcare, and income."

I hate removed this sentence from the article:

"Bristol, Virginia ranks near the bottom of Virginia localities in education, healthcare, and income."

It would be nice if this assertion could be backed up with a citation or two. --Takeel 02:41, 26 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Population

Given the extreme influx of illegal immigrants, the figures regarding the Hispanic population of that area are comically erroneous.

Location

If Bristol is on the VA-TN border, then it certainly isn't where the red dot on the accompanying map is. 12.76.144.235 15:07, 9 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
