In second city, head to the bottom area steps (5)
I believe the answer is:
rumba
'steps' is the definition.
(type of dance - a set of dance steps)
'in second city head to the bottom area' is the wordplay.
'in second city' becomes 'rum' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'head to' suggests taking the first letters.
The first letters of 'bottom area' is 'ba'.
'rum'+'ba'='RUMBA'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for rumba that I've seen before include "one's on the floor for it" , "Cuban folk dance" , "Latin American dance" , "Style of dance" , "music one can dance to" .)
