Anyone in Massachusetts knows it's not exactly the biggest state in terms of land size. In fact, compared to the rest of the states in the U.S., it is the 7th smallest state in the U.S. The state covers only 10,554.39 square miles. And with that, approximately just 7,800 square miles of that is actual land (thanks, Atlantic Ocean). Despite that odd fact, we have some relatively decent sized towns and cities, land-wise. But there is a town and a city that have to take their respective titles of the smallest in the state to no fault of their own.
