City

Each city in your market area should be set up using this option. Cities that are not set up here can still be entered with addresses, but a warning will display. A city set up here can be linked to a Zip code (in the Zip cities option) so that when that Zip code is entered for an address, the city will default automatically. Cities can also be used with mail distribution, taxing and routers.

Note:

Naviga will initially load the US cities in this file for the states you request. If you request cities to be set up for all states, this file will require from 70-80 megabytes of disk space. The city information set up by Naviga is from US Postal Service (USPS) sources which may include post offices or sectional center facilities not viewed as “cities” from your perspective; therefore, maintenance of this file may be required. The USPS never deletes a city from their file; for example, if your city/town had another name 50 years ago, the old name most likely will still appear.
