The City inspector works for Waverly Hills, and checks to make sure that those who claim residence in the city actually live there. When Marge and Homer buy an apartment in the city so that Bart and Lisa can attend Waverly Hills Elementary School, the inspector is assigned to them. They manage to trick him into thinking children live in the apartment. Marge describes him as "psychopathic". In fact, he later tells them "too bad, I was looking forward to killing you and making it look like a suicide."
