[Setting/RPM] The City of Triangle

It sounds more like a college town than a real city. 100,000 is a small city by modern definitions, so I really do not see it as being that important unless it is a college town. If it possesses a major university, the university will be the primary employer of the area, as it would presumably possess a student body of 30,000 people and employ around 12,000 people, making it the equivalent of UNC Chapel Hill in the USA (which is surrounded by an urban around of 100,000, made up of the cities of Carrboro, Chapel Hill, and Hillsborough).
