Our town is Buena Vista, the first word is pronounced "Bew-nuh" -- and it's not strictly local, horse saddles were produced here in the early 1900s until I guess sometime before WW2, and old-timers who worked horses in the surrounding states know the local pronunciation!

The conflict aversion way to pronounce it is "BV" :P

It's pronounced 'Bew-nuh' in both Virginia and Colorado.
