There are, indeed, multiple definitions of the difference between a town
and a village
A useful indicator is the street lighting.
Generally a town has continuous evenly spaced street lamps along all or
most roads within its boundary.
Villages often have no street lighting, or only a few strategic lamps
scattered about.
The great advantage of this definition for mapping is that it is an
undisputed fact, on the ground.
