	==General Overview==		==General Overview==
	The city is a modern metropolis with futuristic buildings similar to those seen in [[Metro West]] and other ~~major~~ cities. The location and name of the ~~city are unknown~~, but Goku and his family visited the region while on an air-car day trip. The city appears large enough to contain many businesses, however only a clothing store, [[Lidan]], and [[Don Don House]] are depicted on screen. The city has easy access to a nearby highway.		The city appears to be a modern metropolis with futuristic buildings similar to those seen in [[Metro West]] and other cities. The city's location and name are not given in the anime or manga, but Goku and his family visited the region while on an air-car day trip. The city appears large enough to contain many businesses, however only a clothing store, [[Lidan]], and a restaurant called [[Don Don House]] are depicted on screen. The city has easy access to a nearby highway.

	~~During~~ [[Age 767]], the city was ~~nearly completely~~ abandoned by its inhabitants ~~after the announcement~~ of the [[Cell ~~Games~~]]. Goku and his family observed the population ~~trying to flee~~ on ~~the~~ highway ~~leading away from~~ town. ~~Once they arrived inside, they~~ were ~~unable to locate any~~ open ~~stores or see any people at all~~. ~~The city appeared to suffer minor damage~~ during the exodus. ~~The~~ city was presumably repopulated after the ~~destruction~~ of [[Cell]].		Around May of [[Age 767]], the city was abandoned by its inhabitants because of the terror posed by [[Cell]]'s rampages. Goku and his family observed the population fleeing on an overcrowded highway out of town. No residents were seen still living in the city and no stores were open. Some of the store windows were damaged during the exodus. Although not depicted on screen, the city was presumably repopulated after the the death of Cell.<ref>{{Cite episode\|Series=Z\|Eps=172}}</ref>

	Due to the ~~production~~ schedule challenges inherent in producing a weekly anime series based on a weekly comic, the writers of ''[[Dragon Ball Z]]'' interjected anime-only material both as a means of extending the runtime and to flesh out the ''Dragon Ball'' universe.
