Editing Crown City

'''Crown City '''is a city. <!--It is a parody of New York, New York and is specifically modeled after Brooklyn.--> From [[Elwood City]] to Crown City the drive is over 100 miles, and along the way you pass through a lot of farmland. Despite the distance, in [[The Long Road Home]] [[George Lundgren]] walked from Elwood City to Crown City in 11 hours to raise money for Autism research.

Even though the city is a parody of NYC, [[Arthur Read]] and his family went to [[New York City]] with [[Buster Baxter|Buster]] and [[Bo Baxter]] in the pilot episode of [[Postcards from Buster]]. Buster also went to New York two other times in his spin-off series.

==In Comparison to Elwood City==
Some episodes portray [[Elwood City]] in a different light compared to Crown City. [[Muffy Goes Metropolitan]] portrays it as a grand city, much larger than Elwood City and referred to as a place for weekend vacations. Other episodes, such as [[The Long Road Home]] portray Crown City as simply a sister city to Elwood City. Some have speculated that Elwood City might be a suburb of Crown City.

==Trivia==
*Crown City is nicknamed the "Big Banana". This is probably because Crown City is a parody of New York, and New York is nicknamed the "Big Apple".
*It hosts a [[Crown City Physics Prize]] won by [[Keith Powers]], the uncle of [[Alan Powers|The Brain]]. This was reported on by the [[Elwood City Times]].
