the city

1) what people call the big city closest to them
2) what people who live out in the country call any large town
3) A comic strip drawn by cartoonist Derf, which makes fun of the state of affairs in Cleveland, OH (AKA The City), and in the United States in general. Run mostly in altie newspapers.

1) I'm five miles outside of the city.
2) Yeah, I'm going to the city this weekend. Y'all coming?
3) I read The City this week and it rocked.

The City

Manhattan! If one of you Queens or Brooklyn boy's ever told anyone you were from the city, you would received the strangest of looks.

If you live in Queens, The Bronx, Brooklyn, or Staten Island, you are not from "The City".

The City

Colloquialism for the area of London around Bank tube station. Lots of large international banks and law firms centre round there. So called because the area comprised the actual "City of London" administrative area."

Populated by vile overpaid tossarses for the most part.

Jasmine got a job with Linklaters, a law firm in the City. She quit soon after due to the multitudinous tosspots who worked there, braying rugby-shirted fratboys to a man.

The City

Stomping grounds of The Tick, also the place where he keeps his stuff.

"You can't blow up The City! That's where I keep my stuff!"

the City

Used to refer to the largest city in the area generally.
London is an exception, where "the City" (with a capital) is used to refer to a specific area within Central London, also known as the Square Mile. It's the main business district, basically.

US: We're going to the city tonight!
UK: Those damn City workers and their 6 figure salaries.
