For example, in Washington Heights and Golan Heights, what does “heights” mean? What does it tell us about the place?

Yeah but “Arlington Flat as all Fuck” isn’t quite as appealing as “Arlington Heights.” It’s like adding “Grove” or “Hills” to the end of a town to make it sound more upscale instead of “sits on top of a massive landfill.”
Yeah it’s just marketing. I think 99pi even had an episodes about it
It’s funny because the area where I grew up was kind of a dumping ground but now, you can’t find a home there for less than 10 million, even older one story brick houses. What is so appealing about Utah that our housing prices are so astronomical? We don’t have many towns with “heights” after their names!
