I suggest that those interested visit the following two sites to know more about the use of ‘which’ and ‘whose’.
https://www.thefreedictionary.com/whose
https://www.thefreedictionary.com/where
The above two articles will explode the myths that
1. A comma is required before ‘where’. Therefore, A is a better choice
2. ‘Whose’ also requires a comma before it, or else, the sentence will turn a run-on.
3. A run-on has been created due to the lack of comma before the possessive relative pronoun ‘whose’
4. The word ‘whose’ is misused to modify a city.
5. Whose can stand only for human being and not for inanimate bodies.
The OE is misleading.

chetan2u, I too thought the same and went for option B, but the OA is A. I think here you need a possesive pronoun since your intention is to tell 'city's economic growth' not city economic growth., so B makes more sense than does A. So I think OA is not correct.
thanks...
