We could assume that "Quackville" is a District inside Duckburg, which has its own newspaper.  After all, a kid winning an ordinary kite contest is not likely to be placed on the front page of a big city or middle-sized city newspaper, like The Duckburg Daily Blah.  It is logical to assume that "Duckville" is the district inside Duckburg that encompasses Donald's neighbourhood on Duckburg's South Side (AKA "South Duckburg").  I don't think Duckburg has an "alternate name".  IF it were to have an alternate name, that should be a descriptive term, such as Chicago is termed, "The Windy City", or New York is termed, "Gotham City".  Having Duckville as a separate city brings up the problem of Donald and his nephews reading a newspaper from a smaller, nearby town, which has local news about a nearby bigger city.  I DO have Duckville as another town inside Duck County, because Bob Gregory used it in a few of his stories.

Quackville being a district is a good solution, and your reasoning makes sense!
Although, then we'd have both a Quackville and a Quacktown (where Grandma's farm is located). I guess there's nothing saying you can't have two similarly named districts within the same town, it's just... annoying, I guess. Reminds me of how I put Daniel Duck as the father of Danial Duck on my Duck family tree...

Also, I assume you mean "Quackville" when you write "Duckville".

Yes.  I am so used to thinking of Bob Gregory's and Tony Strobl's Duckville that I forgot what I was thinking.

In Janet Gilbert/Vicar's Once a Loser, Donald temporarily moves to the town of Turkeyton, which I would guess to be in Calisota.
