Well, it's in the Kantou region, and they're pretty much inside the Tokyo Prefecture...

They're in a fictional area of Tokyo known as Beika City. I think it's supposed to be near Shibuya.

Technically, Tokyo is neither a city (市 "shi") nor a prefecture (県 "ken"), but is a metropolis (都 "to")

Well true... Tokyo isn't really a "ken" but it's generally grouped the same way (that's why they call it "todoufuken")
