You're unlikely to find GPSBabel to be the best tool for that. (I don't
know what tools ARE available, but I know how painful it will be to use
GPSBabel for this.)

In the unlikely case that you have polygon data for every city/village
of interest and need help constructing the batch file/script files to
let GPSBabel iterate over them and return a non-zero number of points
when the correct one is selected, let us know.

Not to be snobbish, but if that paragraph made your head hurt, GPSBabel
is the wrong tool for this problem.  It's not like we have built in
political boundary tables for the planet.
