"Are you talking ensemble numbers?"
I imagine the OP specifically means 'townspeople' numbers.
I immediately thought of "Belle" from BATB, but I personally have a soft spot for "We'd Like To Thank You" from ANNIE (which has a town, of sorts).

I agree with all of EugLoven's choices.

Performing Iowa Stubborn was one of my favorite parts of being in The Music Man! I had totally forgotten about it until now.
I chose, and my world was shaken. So what?
The choice may have been mistaken. The choosing was not.

I know it's not a stage musical, but since it very well should be one, I'm adding Seize the Day from the Newsies
