We have a module - find it in Apps after clearing the filter - that captures the City from a new dropdown field:

This module is a good example of how to add new fields via development.
You can also use Odoo Studio if you are on the CUSTOM plan:

If you are hosted on Odoo.SH or On-Premise, I would suggest going with the OCA module for City Names instead of the Odoo Official base_address_extended module.
With the Odoo module, you will need to manually import or create all the city names.  With the OCA module all the names can be imported via the Geonames database.
