Subject: company towns
 
 
Jim Coombs asked on Dec.9 about company towns named for the company. I
don't know of a general list, but I do know one such city. Kohler,
Wisconsin is the company town of the Kohler Company, which makes top of
the line bathtubs, sinks, spas, etc. The Kohler family is still
involved in managing the company, and additionally has a reputation as art
patrons.
