Townie

The entirety of Creation in its beauty, cruelty and harmony, is the expression of Divine thought and is the materialization, or body of God. People that live in towns and cities don't get that. They are removed from all of it.
All of history can be summed up by the difference between townies and regular folk as such:

Townie

In the US, townies are a variety of resident of Massachusetts (which they will often refer to as “the Commonwealth” — e.g., “I couldn’t find an open packy in the whole Commonwealth”). Closely related to the “Masshole,” townies are often found in places like Revere and Chelmsford (only Wellesley is wholly townie-free). The townie is extremely proud of his Massachusetts parochialism and may not know that the Berkshires exist.

If the townie attends college at all, it is most likely the state college in his hometown (e.g., Bridgewatah State), which the townie will often refer to as “13th grade.” Despite the townie college experience involving being reunited with one’s high school chums, the townie will typically drop out mid-second semestah, whereupon he will most often pursue a life of “landscapin’ in the summah and snowplowin’ in the wintah,” often in pahtnahship with high school chums.

The townie hyperbolically enjoys Boston sports and vacations exclusively in Hyannis, which, despite its connections to the Kennedy family, is mostly strip malls and Super 8s.

Notable examples of townies include the entire Affleck family.

Townies have been depicted in media in “Beautiful Girls,” on “SNL” by J. Fallon and R. Dratch, and most famously in “Good Will Hunting,” the “Citizen Kane” of townieism (with Ben Affleck giving an Oscah-worthy performance as Ben Affleck).

Townies and Dunkin’ Donuts have a complex symbiotic relationship that Hahvuhd sociologists are still unable to explain.
My uncle once saw Whitey Bulger in the Dunky by the packy — the one that’s always filled with townies.”

Townie/chav

Townies and Chavs are often seen hanging round in groups of 2-25. You rarely see a chav or townie alone, he/she will travel in a "gang". Words these people like to use are "Yo, innit, brap, blud, blad, safe, wot, ooo no, ah, ohrite" etc. The typical female wears tracksuits, things enblazened with glitter and "diamonds", giant hoop earrings, white/black trainers taht are usually Nike, Adidas or Reebok. You will sometimes see a female townie hanging round with the other chavs or townies and just generally hanging outside chip shops across the UK. These girls will usually wear their hair completely flat with hair gels, sprays etc. and will have it in a side-ponytail.
The male will wear tracksuits (Adidas, Nike, Reebok, Lacoste), a baseball cap that matches the tracksuit and trainers that match too. Their head can be shaven with a weird pattern on the side. He will also wear lots of "bling" (gold chains, watches, earring etc. but the gold is usually fake)
Both males and females will carry round mobile phones, playing loud chav/townie music (usually some dance music, or hip-hop or R&B). They will sit at the back of the bus annoying people by talking loudly, playing loud music, shouting at people and pratting about.
Chavs/townies come usually in ages 3-30.
A female chav is called a Chavette
A male is called a chav
A child 10 and under is a mini-chav
A baby aged 3 months-1 year is a chavlet.
Chavs and townies love to wear burberry, sports brands,etc.
PS
Chavettes will sometimes be pregnant at the age of 16-18
Chavs will be seen in bushes smoking/doing drugs
Or round play areas looking "hard"
