"En cada ***localidad*** se establecerán vínculos con los actores locales, organizaciones sociales, educativas y culturales...". "La identificación de las ***localidades*** específicas en las que se realizarán las actividades propuestas se vinculará al análisis comparativo de los registros históricos presentes en el acervo recogido por xxx medio siglo atrás".
Estoy buscando otra palabra que no sea "town" dado que el cliente no quiere que use esa palabra porque, según él, "no es lo mismo".
Muchas gracias

Dictionary of English - location, locality, or localetalktalk.co.uk
A location is the place where something is situated: The new flats were built in a pleasant riverside location. A locality is similar, but unless qualified ( exact locality) has a wider sense: Our hotel was in an attractive locality not far from the sea. A locale is a place linked to a particular event or series of events: The director found an ideal locale for his new film.

Note from asker:
| Gracias Andrés, pero de hecho localidad y "location" o locality son cosas diferentes. Lo que busco son sinónimos de "town" que es en realidad lo que significa localidad. |
Peer comment(s):
| agree |
Henry Hinds
: Well, " locality" does the trick.

venue
I would definately go with venue myself as it gives the idea of a location where some activities are carried out-often used for meetings, entertainment, cultural activities etc. Seems to fit your context better. Location is more generic and refers to site only:)

community
Another option, although with this particular client, it´s probably not going to be close enough to the original. I'm not fond of locality and find it somewhat stilted for everyday people speak whereas I will use community and it does offer the same global perspective of places where people lives (or peoples themselves, if need be) that Deborah mentions in her agreement.
