In Ashland, Oregon (a town about 16 miles south of me) it's perfectly legal for women to go topless. Unsurprisingly, Ashland is a college town (Southern Oregon University), and is incredibly liberal even by the standards of other college towns.
Despite the legality of them doing so, I've never yet seen a topless woman there. I've heard reports that there are a few "regulars" who like to walk around the parks etc "attuning to nature", and the police have been known to gently try to encourage them to cover up. From all reports, it's a fultile gesture on behalf of the police force as the women in question enjoy the full protection of the law and generally tell the police to go screw themselves.
