Well, we do know that Nocturne Alley exists. IMO there are probably more
than that -- we in the fandom have certainly created many, from Espeche
Alley to Vyrtick Alley to Horizont Alley to Ayne Alley.

As to the extent of the wizarding city, that all depends on how big you
think the wizarding population is, doesn't it?

Cariños,
