Poor in-town mileage

Hi,
I'm looking for some suggestions for possible causes of poor in-town mileage for my '93 Aero (manual). On the highway, I still get a solid 30+ mpg at 75 mph, but my local mileage is in the 19 mpg range. When I first got the car (three years ago), local mileage was in the mid-20s. The engine idles smoothly and is not giving me any obvious hints of problems. Plugs have been replaced since problem started, no change. If anything, I've been driving more conservatively than I used to. Any ideas? Thanks very much!
