Como se dice "Avila"? Dondo va el acento? Es el nombre de una playa en California y una ciudad pequena.

If it is located here in the US, it probably will not be pronounced as it would be in Spanish. Colorado, Nevada, Los Angeles, Pasadena, etc.: none of these are pronounced here is the US as they would be by a hispanohablante.
