In 3e the template concept can apply to almost anything.
How about templates for towns or cities?
The templates could be Hamlet, Metropolin, and the like, but also Magical (more wizards, and magic works better), Lost (high DC's for gather information, older magic items), Besieged, Ruined, Planetouched, War-zone...
So a DM could take a basic location, and add the Magical Lost Village templates, and have all the numbers: population, magical properties, market modifiers or whatever.
What do you think?
Another possibility is classes for locations, but that is a bit more complex. A village would be a level 3 location, the biggest city in the kingdom would be a multiclass 15 location, and the epic city of Oire would be a level 30 location... with cities gaining things with levels, and kings or dukes gaining location xp to level up their cities... eh.. never mind. but how about templates?
