The word(s) "town" appears 56 time(s) in 53 verse(s) in Quran in Muhammad Habib Shakir translation.

(11) What! do the people of the towns then feel secure from Our punishment coming to them by night while they sleep?

(12) What! do the people of the towns feel secure from Our punishment coming to them in the morning while they play?

(13) These towns-- We relate to you some of their stories, and certainly their apostles came to them with clear arguments, but they would not believe in what they rejected at first; thus does Allah set a seal over the hearts of the unbelievers

(14) And when it was said to them: Reside in this town and eat from it wherever you wish, and say, Put down from us our heavy burdens: and enter the gate making obeisance, We will forgive you your wrongs: We will give more to those who do good (to others).

(15) And ask them about the town which stood by the sea; when they exceeded the limits of the Sabbath, when their fish came to them on the day of their Sabbath, appearing on the surface of the water, and on the day on which they did not keep the Sabbath they did not come to them; thus did We try them because they transgressed.

(16) And wherefore was there not a town which should believe so that their belief should have profited them but the people of Yunus? When they believed, We removed from them the chastisement of disgrace in this world's life and We gave them provision till a time.

(17) This is an account of (the fate of) the towns which We relate to you; of them are some that stand and (others) mown down.

(18) And such is the punishment of your Lord when He punishes the towns while they are unjust; surely His punishment is painful, severe.

(19) And it did not beseem your Lord to have destroyed the towns tyrannously, while their people acted well.

(20) And inquire in the town in which we were and the caravan with which we proceeded, and most surely we are truthful.
