By the way, ordinal regression would require huge datasets because my dependent variable has around 20 different responses... but again, one might say that with so many ordinal responses, it is as if we have a linear/interval variable, right? I just hoped that there would be a two-way kruskal-wallis or something like that. On the other hand, what is going to happen if I (1) bootstrap data from all cells of my design and average the rank ordering of the data of every cell? And then (2) do the same but using data from a uniform/normal distribution so that I assume that there is no difference between the cells? From point (1) I will find the statistical value and from point (2) the expectation and then with a third step (3) I can run a chi-square on the observed/expected values. Would this be reasonable? But again, how can I distinguish between main and interaction effects?

David's advice is sound, but also investigate proportional odds models (e.g., lrm in Prof. Harrell's rms package) in case the 'usual' approach comes up short. It would be helpful to know the number of response categories and some idea of the number of cities-of-birth under study, though...
