Which city is located at 42'N and 83'W?

Answer 1

There's no city there. That point is in Lake Erie, about a mile off the Canadian shore

and 23 miles south-southeast of downtown Detroit.

Note:

I interpreted the numbers in the question to mean 42 degrees N and 83 degrees W,

although the symbol ( ' ) means 'minutes' when it's used in writing angles.

If the question had been interpreted strictly and literally, the coordinates of the

point would be "42 minutes north / 83 minutes west". Ignoring for a moment the

fact that "83 minutes" is a rather gauche rendition of "1 degree 23 minutes", the

point would have been located off the coast of West Africa in the Gulf of Guinea,

about 48 miles north of the equator and 345 miles south-southwest of the center

of Accra, Ghana.

Answer 2

That point is located along Crane Rd in Saratoga County, eastern New York State.

It's about 2 miles southeast of the center of Galway, 7.6 miles due west of Ballston

Spa, 12.4 miles southwest of Saratoga Springs, and 13.2 miles north of Schenectady.

Answer 3

There is no city, associated with any continent, there. That point is in the

wildlife habitat preserve about 4.8 miles east of Grandview ID, and about

43 miles south-southeast of downtown Boise.

Answer 4

There is no city at these coordinates, which are in an agricultural area about 8 miles south of Brantford, Ontario, Canada. Lake Erie is about 15 miles south.
