Swift 2 Mapkit Get City from user location

Is it possible to get the name of the city and put that one into an array of strings from the user location, using Mapkit? I already know how to get the user location so you dont have to go into that.

Yes you can with using CLGeocoder class try to use this code 

 CLGeocoder().reverseGeocodeLocation(CLLocation(latitude: newCoordinates.latitude, longitude: newCoordinates.longitude),             
     completionHandler: {(placemarks, error) -> Void in

            if error != nil {
                print("Reverse geocoder failed with error" + error!.localizedDescription)
                return
            }

            if placemarks!.count > 0 {
                let pm = placemarks![0]

                let c = pm.locality // city of place mark 

            }
            else {
                annotation.title = "Unknown Place"
                self.outletOfMapView.addAnnotation(annotation)
                print("Problem with the data received from geocoder")
            }
        })
