A site of a city is where you can find it on the map. You can look it up and it's on the map.


A location of a city is where it is on the exact location on Earth.

Answer:

The similarity between those concepts is that both share the current location of a place in the map.

Step-by-step explanation:

The absolute location is the exact place where the city is on Earth, it commonly goes with the latitude and longitude so that the person can know perfectly where that spot in the map is.

In the other hand, the site of a city shows also the actual location of that settlement in the Earth's map, but it comes with specific characteristics of the area searched. Site factors include landforms, climate, vegetation, availability of water, soil quality, minerals, and wildlife.
