===Mayor===

The bespectacled mayor of Central City won the bitterly contested 1986 election against his rival, the influential businessman [[Shawn Berger]].

The mayor easily mixes up his speeches.

===Shawn Berger===

A powerful and unscrupulous businessman, Berger runs [[Berger, Inc.]], a large company that operates a major commercial television network and a rocket launchpad in Central City. Greedy and power-hungry, what Berger desires most is to be mayor and have the adulation of the masses. He is known to make demagogue-styled impassioned rants on television while sitting in front of the American flag. How very topical.

===Produce-thrower===
[[Image:Producethrower.jpg|thumb|right|125px|The smartest/dumbest among them.]]

This mustachioed man threw tomatoes at [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]] immediately after watching Berger's supposedly damning evidence of the Autobots' duplicity. He demanded that the Autobots "go home!" It is unknown whether he had already purchased the produce prior to the Autobot Day parade, or if he purchased them after watching Berger's footage specifically for the purpose of throwing the tomatoes in indignant anger. As [[Spike Witwicky (G1)|Spike]], [[Sparkplug Witwicky (G1)|Sparkplug]] and [[Chip Chase]] left with the Autobots, he accused them of being "lousy Autobot-lovers" and led a mob.

==Notable locations==
It should be noted that many buildings in Central City are large enough to accommodate Transformers within their interiors.

===City Hall===
This imposing edifice of bureaucratic opulence impresses even the vain [[Sunstreaker (G1)|Sunstreaker]] in its majestic brown colour.

===Berger, Inc. building===
[[Image:BergerInc_Building.jpg|right|150px|thumb|The commute's great, but it's hell on the windows.]]

Standing in Central City's business district, the Berger, Inc. building rises not very high above the other skyscrapers surrounding it. A helipad for Berger's personal helicopter is on the roof of the building, under which his poorly decorated office is located on the seventh of nine floors. It has a lot of windows, which makes [[Laserbeak (G1)|Laserbeak]]'s job much easier.

===Fake Solar Power Plant===

This faux solar power plant was donated by Shawn Berger after losing the election, in a scheme to lure the Decepticons into attacking the plant. The inoperative plant hid Berger's private army tanks, which were supposed to defeat the Decepticons in battle, humiliate the real mayor and win Berger his much-cherished adulation of the masses. Unfortunately, they didn't, it didn't and he didn't.

===Oil field===
[[Image:CentralCity_Oilfield.jpg|thumb|right|150px|Despite all this oil, Megs never actually tried to steal any of it.]]

The lazy and shiftless workers of this oil field don't bother turning up until it is well into the daylight hours, allowing fake Autobots to steal the oil right out of the tanks.

===Sports Stadium===

Whether it's football or staging a rigged trial to determine the fate of friendly alien robots, Central City's Sports Team Stadium is there for you!

It's either surrounded by ''gigantic'' buildings, or else holds some ''incredibly'' tiny humans.

===Gymnasium===

This local sports center held a Teen Dance Day later on Decepticon Day (or the day earlier or the day after - who knows). Inside, to go with the seizure-inducing disco lighting, they were playing all the music teenagers love, such as big band music, but no [[Cold Slither]]. [[Soundwave (G1)|Soundwave]] took the [[Mini-Cassette|cassette]]s to the dance; [[Rumble (G1)|Rumble]] got down with his good self, [[Ravage (G1)|Ravage]] was a big hit with the ladies, but some kid dared to offer Laserbeak a cracker. Laserbeak looked at him as if he would have preferred to eat the kid.

==Central City (Armada)==
'''Central City''' is a human city some distance from [[Lincoln, Nebraska]] by bus.

==Fiction==
===Cartoon continuity===
To help the [[Space Mini-Con Team]] escape from the Autobots, [[Rad White|Rad]], [[Carlos Lopez|Carlos]], [[Alexis]], [[Billy (Armada)|Billy]] and [[Fred (Armada)|Fred]] bought them bus tickets to Central City.

However, they disembarked ''before'' the bus reached its destination and instead hid the Mini-Cons in a [[Farmhouse hideout]]. {{storylink|Runaway}}
