On a map Woodland, California doesn't appear to be a very large place. But Wikipedia informs me that the estimated population is 53,690 (it also says the place used to be called By Hell, California--they probably should have stuck with this name) so it's probably best qualified as a small city. Nearby Sacramento is home to 407,018 people; with 2,136,604 people living in the Sacramento metropolitan area. And not too far to the southwest are San Francisco and Oakland, with populations of 799,183 and 401,489 respectively.
There are plenty of people living in that little pocket of Northern California. But of all the men who call that place home, the Sacramento Bee selected Dustin Pedroia as their Male Athlete of the Year. Sometimes local recognition, from people who actually know you, can mean more than national awards. Congratulations to him.
