Using LINQ with an anonymous type

Question

I am moving a project from working with standard DB queries to working with EF and LINQ. I have a table that has certain records that I would use to build a query that would look like the following:

SQL

select * from client where city = ...

In my original table, I would be pulling client and city from the table to build that query.
It is also possible that client and city above could be another table and/or field altogether. How would I do the same thing with EF and LINQ? Is this even possible or do I have to build a separate class to handle all of that logic?

SQL

from c in context.clients
 where c.city == ....
 select c

Are you asking about having multiple data sources to a LINQ query?

Something like this? I am using LINQ to Objects but the idea is the same.

C#

//Find the numbers in numbers that are also in values
int[] numbers = new int[] { 2, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9 };
int[] values = new int[] { 2, 3 };

var rez = from n in numbers
          from v in values
          where n == v
          select n;
