Question

                    .Element(\"cities\")
                    .Descendants(\"city\")
select ne         


        

Answer 1

As the error message says, your Linq query returns an System.Linq.IQueryable (for all intents and purposes a collection of ints). If you'd like to get one of them, you can either call First or ElementAt(n) to get the n'th element.
