The City, as of yet unnamed, is the primary US point of settlement and one of the primary waypoints. The City is a megalopolis with a commonly cited population of fifty million. -[[Glow-worm P.6]]</ref>, since people were reluctant to leave relative safety and support of portals. Some considered it to extend into over 15 [[Earths]].<ref>Point_Me_@_The_Sky: Our little parcel of humanity is sprawled haphazardly across 15+ alt earths. Has to be a place for us somewhere right? - </ref>
