The extremes of wealth and poverty are wider here than in EverytownAmerica. With the city's impoverished area on the WrongSideOfTheTracks, there's more criminals and you're more likely to be the victim of a crime. As a result, this is where most CrimeAndPunishmentSeries and PoliceProcedural shows are set. When a {{Sitcom}} is set here, it tends to feature a younger, hipper crowd than the usual DomCom. People are also more cynical in The City, and the DeadpanSnarker abounds. There is also public transportation, which is a good place to get PostRobberyTrauma. Combine with a bit of {{dystopia}}n political corruption and a RoguesGallery of unrepentant lawbreakers, and it's the perfect place for the {{Superhero}} to set up shop.
