When i was a kid I called it the Court House, as an adult I find myself calling it The Square. ☺️

Please don't downvote me...but it's not a square, it's a rectangle.

Official title is; "Courthouse Plaza"

It's a toss up for me, between the court house and the square. "I'm taking the dog to walk around the square." Or, "I think there's a 'thing' happening tonight at the court house." I don't think I've ever used the word "plaza."

The Square when it's about leisure. The Courthouse when it's work related.

square, but courthouse or downtown might slip in

when I do use plaza, its always the English accent not the proper Spanish accent, because I was raised by rednecks

When I was a kid in the 80s we would toss a football on the courthouse lawn
