Why Can I Not Get Same Locality as Apple Weather App? - cllocationmanager

Question

I want to display the user's city & state in my application. However, I can't seem to get the desired city to populate.
I am currently in New Albany, OH. Apple's Weather app displays that correctly:
However, when utilizing CoreLocation, I am getting Columbus, OH.
Here is a map of my current location (New Albany), displaying the proximity to Columbus, OH:
When I print the received CLPlacemark, I get the following:
7070 Bayton Pl,
7070 Bayton Pl, New Albany, OH 43054, United States
# <+40.10695990,-82.82727340> +/- 100.00m,
region CLCircularRegion (identifier:'<+40.10795920,-82.82855810> radius 296.54', center:<+40.10795920,-82.82855810>, radius:296.54m)
Note - The above CLPlacemark is a little inaccurate, as the address is not my address.
However, when I print my CLPlacemark's locality, I get the following:
Columbus
I have my CLLocationManager configured as follows:
locationManager.desiredAccuracy = kCLLocationAccuracyThreeKilometers
locationManager.distanceFilter = 3000
When I have determined that the user has authorized location services, I call:
locationManager.startUpdatingLocation()
No matter how I configure my CLLocationManager, I never get returned New Albany as the locality. I have even tried setting the CLLocationManager's desiredAccuracy to kCLLocationAccuracyBestForNavigation to see if that would help, but it did not.
What am I doing incorrectly that is causing me to receive Columbus rather than New Albany?
Update 1
I tried the solution below, however it was unreliable because the String that contains the city, state, and zip code is sometimes at the first, second, or third index, depending on the address.
Do I need to get the addressDictionary, get the array of values using FormattedAddressLines, and then parse the city manually?
Update 2
I printed the CLPlacemark that was returned, and this is what I received:
Optional([AnyHashable("Street"): 7070 Bayton Pl, AnyHashable("ZIP"): 43054, AnyHashable("Country"): United States, AnyHashable("SubThoroughfare"): 7070, AnyHashable("State"): OH, AnyHashable("Name"): 7070 Bayton Pl, AnyHashable("SubAdministrativeArea"): Franklin, AnyHashable("Thoroughfare"): Bayton Pl, AnyHashable("FormattedAddressLines"): <__NSArrayM 0x618000053fe0>(
7070 Bayton Pl,
New Albany, OH 43054,
United States
)
, AnyHashable("City"): Columbus, AnyHashable("CountryCode"): US, AnyHashable("PostCodeExtension"): 8120])
It's obvious that the city value, New Albany, in the FormattedAddressLines dictionary does not match the CLPlacemark's locality value, Columbus.

Following is the entirety of the object that retrieves the current location:
/// Retrieves the device's location.
public final class DeviceLocation: NSObject, CLLocationManagerDelegate {
// MARK: - Properties

/// Returns an initialized `DeviceLocation` object.
public override init() {
super.init()
locationManager.delegate = self
locationManager.desiredAccuracy = kCLLocationAccuracyNearestTenMeters
}

}
print(location)
reverseGeocode(location)

public func startMonitoringLocationChanges() {
locationManager.startMonitoringSignificantLocationChanges()
}
/// Retrieves information for a location from a reverse-geocode query.

private func reverseGeocode(_ location: CLLocation) {
let geocoder = CLGeocoder()
geocoder.reverseGeocodeLocation(location) { (placemarks, error) in
if let geocodeError = error {
print(geocodeError)
self.deviceLocationDelegate?.deviceLocation(self, didFailToReverseGeocode: geocodeError)
return
}
guard let placemark = placemarks?.last else {
