The Gotham skyline[1]
Gotham City was a city located in a large metropolitan area on the Eastern Seaboard of the United States.
It was under the protection of Batman and his proteges from the criminally insane supervillains, gangs, and mobs that littered its streets.
Metropolis was located 'right over the bridge' from Gotham City.[2]
The natives of the city were referred to as Gothamites.
