Is the term "people of Makkah" intended to mean those within the Haram, or does it include those outside the Haram as long as they are connected to Makkah?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
The term "Makkah," or "people of Makkah," refers to what is within the Haram, or even if it is outside the Haram, as long as it is connected to Makkah.

The Shaykh:
If the settlement is connected, it is considered part of the people of Makkah, even if it is outside the Haram.

The presenter:
All right.

The Shaykh:
As for when the settlement is not connected, the one who is from Makkah is the one who resides inside the Haram, within the miles.

The presenter:
He knows you.
