Wow, that is not the Gothenburg I know. Quite funny when you see a picture of a city, and you realize you think you know it but you've only been in one corner of it. But that corner (south and south-west) I know quite well.

You should rotate these to throw off ppl's sense of cardinal direction

also I have thought about the "rotate / skew" option - like when I was failing miserably at finding thessaloniki - and it would just be cruel
I had a hunch Göteborg would be easy for some people but I went with it anyway because frankly solving these is way more fun than watching people guess

OK while looking, I google mapped "Mountain Home AFB" and wow that looks like somebody was playing Go with farms and then dropped an airfield in the middle of the board

Golf course in northeast says USA but keep reading.
Circular bunker (?) arrangements argue for a military airfield but I just looked at basically every USAF base I can think of and didn't see one that looked exactly like that. On the other hand lack of a half-dozen big gray cargo jets just thinkin baout things argues against. Also, no golf ball antennae or fighters.
Also, looking more closely at the upper right, there's these big green ovals that look frighteningly like cricket fields, and I don't see any baseball diamonds. Shit.

it's Aveiro in Portugal. (found by googling "circlar pedestrian bridge"!)

Indeed! The salt marsh landscape does give it a Low Country look from above, though.

sorry, I guess I thought Aveiro was a bigger deal! it's a significant university town and moderate tourist attraction, i dunno man.

Big enough to have a pedestrian roundabout bridge, I ain't knockin' ya, C.

Current one is such a wonky patchwork of elements. Having a hard time picturing any of these spaces relating to any of the others. That's not so unusual but it sort of is in towns with what look like old-timey cathedrals and squares, and that huge, oddly-shaped green that nothing else seems to really take seriously.
