In one universe, Levendale City, located somewhere in Great Britain, was home to the local incarnation of Jenny Everywhere, Jenny Bainbridge. The city seemed to have multiple educational facilities, as the one Jenny attended was specifically Levendale West Academy. Levendale City also had a football team, Levendale United.

Behind the scenes
Richard Prediger's author's notes for The Genesis of Jenny Everywhere pointed out Levendale's fictionality:
And don’t ask where Levendale City is. The real Levendale is a small suburb somewhere in the vicinity of a small town called Yarm. This isn’t it. It’s a lot bigger, for one thing. Like Springfield, it’s everywhere — in fact, just like Jenny. And yet, nowhere. Levendale is also partly inspired by a certain village called Leven, probably in East Yorkshire, which the author visited as a kid. Certain readers may be familiar with it. Also, the River Leven which is a tributary of the Tees. |
