Tranquility is a city located in the northwesternmost portion of California[1] in the United States of America.
Tranquility, for unknown reasons, is frequently identified simply as 'Tranquility, USA.'
Sam lives there. It's not just a game location.
Fiction
Transformers (2007)
Though never explicitly named, Tranquility is where the Witwickys and Mikaela Banes live. After receiving Bumblebee's call for assistance, the Autobots make a (semi)successful planetfall in Tranquility. Only Optimus Prime manages to land in an uninhabited area.
Transformers: The Game
Tranquility possesses a massive police force which tends to shoot first and not bother asking questions when it comes to giant robots. They are also firmly in the pocket of Sector Seven. Barricade takes advantage of their mentality by disguising himself as one of their number. Interestingly, the cops seem to consider the Autobots a bigger threat than the Decepticons. This is especially confusing when considers all the damage Barricade, Shockwave, and the Decepticon drones did to the city.
Related characters
Kid with camera
This young man was enjoying a meal with his friends at a local cafe, showing off his new camera, when a meteor struck a nearby store. As he raced towards the crash site, he excitedly talked into his camera about how cool it was, saying a hundred times cooler than Armageddon. After seeing the destroyed building, he commented on how "boned" the owner was, unless he had "asteroid insurance". While his friends said that they saw something behind the tree, the kid was more insterested if his friends had found him a space rock.
Little girl with missing tooth
This young girl had just gone to bed, having lost a tooth, and awaiting the Tooth Fairy's arrival, when she herd a loud noise coming from her pool. Taking her tooth and My Little Pony for protection, she witnessed a giant emerge from her pool, then walk off without a word. The young girl asked if the giant was the Tooth Fairy. Her parents soon arrived, and the giant quickly left.
Overzealous cop
This overzealous police officer interrogated Sam Witwicky after he was arrested, claiming that his car was alive. The cop was convinced that Sam was a junkie, as he was found with pills on his possession, perscribed for Mojo. Ron Witwicky explained that the pills was for their dog, but the cop was still unconvinced, and when he caught Sam eying his piece, he threatened to "bring it". Sam asked if the cop himself was on drugs.
Despite having a mustache, it is currently presumed that this individual was an actual flesh and blood human, and not a Decepticon hologram.

Footnotes
- ↑ Though most sources leave Tranquility's exact location ambiguous, the Glu Transformers mobile game shows it on a map. This location is ~500 miles from Hoover Dam. When the Autobots consult Archibald's map they are 230 miles from Hoover Dam... but they seem to have driven all night since the ambush in Tranquility, which makes that about right.
