Focegrossa is located in plains, savanna and desert biomes, and facing the ocean. The city is also divided by a river that flows into the ocean. The Kaapberg, a hill of medium height in the savanna biome, is another important geographical feature that marks the northern end of the town.

Despite the efforts of making Focegrossa a mob-safe settlement, important urban areas have been traditionally affected by zombie, skeleton and creeper presence. The southernmost part of Focegrossa has historically been the most dangerous area. The south side of the Central Railway Station was once considered a critical zone during night due to the numerous presence of monsters in the surroundings. Mobs even spawned inside the station halls and roof, or in Jan van Riebeeck square.
Focegrossa is, in overall, one of the safest settlements in the 1.14 Survival World, thanks to its care with public lighting, the build density and its urban layout. The central neighborhoods of Martesanese and Windkant enjoy an almost zero presence of land malicious mobs, making them safe to stay out at night. In the same way, Pillager squads have never been seen close to the town center in many time.


However, with the growth of the town and an improved public lighting program, security in this key area has improved significantly, while the areas around Enrico Fermi, Milano and Della Riva streets, as well as Stellenbosch park, are considered very safe, where mob spawning or appearance are exceedingly rare.
The main safety concerns in Focegrossa are streets and buildings close to the town ends, which lack of a torch lighted perimeter, as well as tridents thrown by Drowned mobs along the coast line path. In addition, there is not any mechanism or mob to avoid Phantoms attacking players.

This industrial building is made almost entirely of clay brick blocks. While it was initially expected to be a simple build to cover a failed experience farm, the structure ended being one of the largest and most highlighted in the town.

It is rumoured, according to some testimonials and evidence, that a boat ice rail runs in the deep undergrounds of Focegrossa. However, these versions are not official and there is no station or clear pathway to go to or come from this supposed ice rail.

=== Metropolitana ('SubIce') ===
In view of the growth of the city and the increasing time to move to the newer neighborhoods, in March 2020, the Metropolitana, an urban transport system that consists of ice underground tracks, entered service with its first line and 3 stations, from west to east. Currently, a second line is being built, while a third line is projected to connect southwestern Focegrossa with the northern side.

* The city managed to host a maximum of 3 villagers. When the city was griefed, they all went missing. Miraculously, one of them (who had been cured by Munozdav) appeared later in the third floor of a building in central Focegrossa, only accessible by a wooden ladder. He turned into a successful Master level toolsmith and still enjoys the safety of the place he was found.
