| − | The '''city''' is a location in {{CF}} that can be visited by riding the [[bus]] from [[town]]. Only a central plaza area can be explored in {{CF|short|nolink}}, housing merchants and services, a theater, and with access to the [[Resetti Surveillance Center]]. Random [[villager]]s from out of town, possibly inhabitants of the city, can be seen wandering the plaza and browsing the shops. The villagers that can be seen in the plaza will change every time a building is entered and exited by the [[player]]. [[Weather#Precipitation|Precipitation]] in the city affects the town, even if the weather is different there. For example, flowers in the town will be hydrated by rain in the city, and [[gyroid]]s can be found buried underground the next day. | + | The '''City''' is a location in the {{SER}} first mentioned in {{WW}}. However, it is not accessible until {{CF}}. It is not specified if the cities spoken of are the same, but it would appear logical for them to be so. |
| | | | |

| | + | The city in ''City Folk'' is accessible by bus from [[town]], and features many shops and buildings. It also hosts events and is home to various citizens. Characters such as [[Crazy Redd]], [[Katrina]], and [[Dr. Shrunk]] all have their own buildings, and they no longer visit the player's town. Villagers will wander around the city. On a stoop on the right side of the city, there is a skunk named [[Kicks]] that will shine the player's shoes for 500 [[Bells]], [[Normal]] villagers say they were hypnotized by shiny shoes, someone must have stopped by [[Kicks]]' place. In some occasions, the first shoe shining is free. There is access to [[Resetti]]'s house in the right side of the city. On sunny days, a sea lion named [[Phineas]] will occasionally appear next to the fountain and give the player unique items such as pinwheels and balloons. |

The Resetti Surveillance Center can be accessed through the tunnel on the far right of the city, but only when the cones have been moved. A large fountain stands in the center of the square, similar to the one that can be built from donating to the [[town fund]], but with a unique statue depicting [[Serena]].
| + | Crazy Redd's, a black market owned by [[Redd]], is a small store on the edge of the city. An [[invitation]] is needed for entry. To get the invitation, talk to other [[villagers]] and they will ask if you want an invitation to get into the store. When you get one, and upon paying the fee of 3,000 bells, rare items and paintings are purchasable. Sometimes the painting are forged, but because it is the only way to gain them for the [[museum]], it is worth it to buy every single painting you see, for the sake of completing the museum. |
