townfolk
Village's permanent inhabitants
Townfolk means the people who live in a town, considered collectively.
The word is interchangeable with townsfolk and townspeople, though slightly less common than either: The townfolk gathered in the square for the annual harvest festival.
It carries a rural or small-town connotation, evoking close-knit communities rather than urban populations.
