Understanding cities seems simple until you try to validate an address. Most people think of a city as a place on a map with boundaries, a local government, and maybe a fierce rivalry with the town next door. They aren't wrong. But in address validation , “city” can mean something a little different. Sometimes it means the default city assigned to a ZIP Code . Sometimes it means an alternate city name that USPS recognizes. Sometimes it means a neighborhood, a census-designated place, or a local name people use even though it isn’t technically a city.
