Default Will Google ban me because I use the same content over and over?

Ok just a simple question that I want to ask you since this is the week-end and I know that the Adsense support won't reply until next week.

Let's say I write a nice article on my landing page to help buyers of homes from making a stupid mistake and use "Warning Miami, FL Home Buyers..." in the title...

Now can I duplicate this page and then simply change the name like "Warning Atlanta,GA Home Buyers..." or if Google will ban me because I use the same content over and over?

I don't see why these warnings could apply to 1 city but not to 2nd or 3rd one!

What's you take on that?

Google does not have a penalty for duplicate content, but may decide to only fully list one version of the page.

This could end with severe damage to the pages Google chooses NOT to fully list.

Content is King; and Google takes that very seriously. Read it as "Unique Content is King".

It is best practice to develop each site searately, on its own merits; indeed, it is asking for trouble not to.

Especially in a highly competitive area, where every downside is a cliff edge.

Probably one of the most critical areas of building and managing a website is dealing with duplicate content. But it's a complex issue with many elements making up the overall equation of what's in and what's out, what's on site and what's off site, what take precedence and what doesn't, how one regional domain can/cannot co exist with another's content, what % is same , etc etc and how the consequences are treated by google in the SERP's

If you don't mind the risk then try it, it may work for awhile. When your site(s) gets dropped from the serps, don't whine though. These type of sites/pages become rarer and rarer to find in the serps over the long-run.
