How to use “In” vs “at” for place?

The choice of using “at” or “in” for a place is determined by the question of “where”.

At
When you are at the top, bottom, or end of something, at a specific address, in a general area, or at a point, you use the preposition “at.”

In
The preposition “in” might refer to a neighbourhood, city, country, tiny vehicle, or body of water.

Examples help to demonstrate how “at” is used in practice.
Examples for “At”

Specific Address: You can visit us at 44 Bharathi Palayam Street.
General Location: Malar will meet you at the shop.
Intersection: The bus station is at Shastri Street and Amman Drive.
Specific Location: Kamala will see you at home.
At a Point: Saran can meet Radha at the traffic light.
Bottom of Something: Shiva’s book is at the bottom of the stairs.

Example sentences of using “In” for Locations
When it comes to “in”, you know that its usage is different.

In a Space: The books are in her bag.
Small Vehicle: Dhana asked me to get in the car.
Water: They are going swimming in the pool.
Neighbourhood: My friend Raja lives in Sivagiri.
City: That hospital is in Erode.
Country: We live in India.

We hope this helps!
