Live with me and Jack in good city (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

beijing

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'city' is the definition.
(Beijing is an example)

'live with me and jack in good' is the wordplay.
'live with' becomes 'be' (synonyms. I am not sure about the 'with' bit.).
'me' becomes 'I'.
'and' says to put letters next to each other.
'jack' becomes 'J' (playing card abbreviation).
'good' becomes 'g' (abbreviation).
'be'+'i'+'j'+'in'+'g'='BEIJING'

Can you help me to learn more?
