If you enjoy Forgotten Realms, I highly recommend Murder in Baldur's Gate (DriveThruRPG has it cheaper in PDF format). It's a fantastic resource on one of the most interesting cities in the setting. It comes with campaign guide to the city, it's history, major players, etc. A DM's screen with all kinds of great info, map handouts (like a flyer to hotspots). Not to mention a great sandboxy adventure about ancient curses, terrible plots and city politicking.
Note: It was written before 5e came out, and designed for any edition 3.5 - 4 - 'next'. But there's lots of 5e stats & such around the web people have made for it.
If looking for something a little darker, little less 'realms', one of my favorite kickstarter writers, Dan Colman just released Ebonclad - A Thieve's Guild Setting
It's got an interesting city setting, revolving of course around a thieve's guild with lots of detailed NPCs with hidden agendas, new player options, etc.
This does not answer your questions, but given what you've said, you may be interested to know that Wizards has released a number of adventure modules set in Faerun over the past year, including
Murder in Baldur's Gate and Legacy of the Crystal Shard, set in Icewind Dale. I think the MiBG has downloadable 3.5 stats, which I imagine would be compatible with Pathfinder. I don't know whether the the others do.
It is, but it's extremely over priced. Amazon has it for a much more reasonable price. Especially considering there's no stat blocks for any NPCs/creatures. Not necessarily a bad thing, considering they'll most likely have to be adjusted from the print outs WotC offers on the site for free.
... I may have accidentally gotten distracted and skipped over half of your post. :/
It's higher than your quoted price range, but maybe you could find a cheap copy of Murder in Baldur's Gate and adapt something from that?

I'm sure he had to modify it some for 5e but it's more investigation and stuff than fighting and dungeon crawling.
