Nuclear generated electrical energy is fed into the grid and distributed, you can't say just where it goes and how it mixes with other types of generation. I don't know of any city that relies on nuclear alone. In a large country like the US there are large areas without nuclear plants, but in a state like Illinois with a number of nuclear plants, all cities will have some nuclear and some from other sources.
