Garlean city

Turning cities into dungeons is such a cheap approach, it soured stormblood for me, so I really hope they don't pull that in future expansions.

That and the fact that the quarter we were allowed to visit was honestly pretty boring :/
It would have felt less dissapointing if there were more npcs to talk to and more diversity in the streets and actual houses you can enter. The layout there is fun, with all the roofs you can climb, but walking around that place just felt kind of dull. I hope even if they turn a city into a dungeon again, that we can at least explore a more exciting part of it.

Wasn't it just the palace?

The streets, alleys and avenues before the first boss should be part of the regular city, though given the look and proximity to the palace entrance, it might well be the noble's/merchant quarter.

Yes, it is. The rest of Ala Mhigo is on the southeastern part of the map. The dungeon is the palace itself. Personnel would also lodge within the palace walls (advisors, guards, physicians, the ruling house close family members, harem, et cetra).

I have a feeling that garlemald cities will look sort of like midgar in FF7...
And it's citizens are actually affected by stigma... maybe not

No, look behind you the next time you enter the dungeon, the entrance is literally the metal gate the alliance broke a hole through, the entire path up to the first boss takes place in the city, then after the first boss you enter the palace.
