At/in such places

Hi all.


What would be the difference in the meaning between at/in such places? Thanks!


Also, with the subsidy, more gyms could be built at/in such places where it is now unimaginable yet desirable.

  • If they represent enclosures, then you probably need 'in'.
  • If not, it's possible that either 'at' or 'in' might be OK.

If they represent enclosures, then you probably need 'in'. If not, it's possible that either 'at' or 'in' might be OK.

I suspect your context will lead you to choose 'in'.
