An example, I live near Chicago (you don't have to actually live in the city, but as long as you're close) and we're famous for our pizza; deep-dish especially.

Actually, the city where I live isn't famous for anything, except for having a mayor who loves to be photographed.
However, I live pretty close to a big city which is famous, among other things, for an extraordinary building: La Sagrada Familia.
