I've excluded two "saint" communities above 5000 in population -- St. Simon's Island, George and St. Charles, Maryland -- because they are Census Designated Places, rather than incorporated cities or towns.

St. Johsnbury, Vermont has close to 10,000 people.

Santa Fe just means "Holy Faith." It doesn't mean "St. Fe."

St. Johnsbury and St. Albans, Vermont have virtually the same population, so I've listed them both since Census estimates are ... estimates.

You need to heed the message above your last comment; "Santa Fe" is not a saint, nor, for example, is St. Croix (in French Sainte Croix--Holy Cross; Spanish Santa Cruz). In the romance languages, the same word is used for 'saint' and 'holy' (the canonized person is, after all, holy).

The points about Santa Fe are well taken, but I'll keep it on the list nonetheless. New Mexico has no true "saint" cities above the 5000 population criterion.

I thought I was being clever by guessing Santa Claus, Indiana, but alas-- it's not the biggest "saint" city in the state!
