Cars often overheat around town due to frequent stop-and-go traffic, which can lead to insufficient airflow through the radiator and reduced cooling efficiency. In contrast, highway driving typically provides consistent airflow and higher speeds, allowing the engine to maintain optimal operating temperatures. Additionally, lower RPMs and less strain on the engine during highway driving help prevent overheating. Other factors, such as a malfunctioning cooling system or low coolant levels, can also contribute to overheating in urban settings.
sometime the fan do not work which can cause the car to overheat. Also it can be a fuse for the fan. Check your thermostat.
Could be debris (leaves, rodent nests, etc.) blocking the air flow through the radiator.

In my 1994 Lincoln Town Car Executive I get about 16 city and 21 highway.
Probably it has either run out of coolant or the cooling fan is broken. Some large engine cars in really hot weather need a larger radiator fitted so it doesnt overheat....like driving a v8 around town in the summer in Spain for instance.

To get "stares" in car town, drive a Harley around the streets.
Could be a number of reasons: low coolant, defective radiator, leaky hoses, blown head gasket...
no, it will not
Depends on how car is used--Mostly highway maybe 35-50K Around town 20-30K Best to inspect and replace when 3/4 used to prevent having to replace drums and/or rotors
