Document references in Firestore won't give you data right away. You'll have to use that document reference and get data from firebase.

It is just like getting data manually referencing a document. For instance,

this.afs.collection('users').doc('doc_id').get().then(result => console.log(result.data()));;//if you want to access a specific document

if you already have a reference (like city in your case),

data.city.get().then(result => console.log(result.data()));

You can use :any datatype to data object if it throws any invalid reference exception

Hope this helps!!
