The City

Nickname for San Francisco. Sometimes also called "San Fran", but the local residents hate it when someone refers to it as "'Frisco". A wonderful city for all, with steep hilly streets, among other things.

Jeremy: Let's check out The City and see Lombard Street. It's the Crookedest Street in the World. After that we can get on a ferry and visit Alcatraz. Then we can have a pizza.

Sam: Alright! Let's go!

Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Milwaukee is the hidden jewel of the Upper Midwest, and an urban thug's paradise.

An urban area with entertainment and a downtown. Different place depending on where youl ive, if you live in NY or NJ the city means Manhttan, if you live in the Bay Area it means San Fran or Oakland. If you live in Illinois you'd prolly call Chicago the city.
