It has been one of two Kettering sister city alliances with European jurisdictions. The other, which began in 1970, is with Steyr, Austria.The borough of Kettering, England, is almost 70 miles north of London, and has a population just over 60,000, very similar to Kettering, Ohio. But the borough has merged into the Northamptonshire council along with Corby, East Northampton and Wellingtonborough, according to city records.Three years ago, that area of England had eight different government agencies, said Al Fullenkamp, chair of the local sister cities committee.
