: 'Hottest' may also include the risk factor, or danger and consequences of getting caught by the authorities. If this is a game, then the perimeters and rules will tell you. If this relates to actual cities, then this idea might not apply.

trendy/ trendiest, in vogue
some other options as "hot" in this sense is supposed to be something that represents the latest fashion, trendiest would be my choice
