Mishneh Torah, Foreign Worship and Customs of the Nations
None of the cities of escape is adjudged a seduced city, as it is said: "Within any of thy gates" (Deut. 17.2); nor is Jerusalem adjudged a seduced city as it was not divided among the tribes. A buffer city must not be adjudged a seduced city, lest the idolaters enter through it and destroy Eretz Ysrael. A single tribunal should not adjudge three cities, one alongside the other, seduced cities, but if they be far apart it may be done.6Sifre, Deut. 17; Sanhedrin, 2a; Ibid. 16a-b; Baba Kamma, 72a C.G.
