The location of Tal Haliim has been stated to be within either the boundaries the Federated Worlds or the Tyrin Empire, but it's true location is secret and it's existence has not been confirmed by authorities.
In actuality the planet is right on the Fed side of the Fed/Tyrin border, and though certain Fed authorities know it's location they are paid well to keep that information secret and to keep it safe from military intervention.

The streets of the town move out in a spoke pattern from a central open hub, which is the location of the famous Tal Haliim market, where smuggled and pirated goods or slaves from all of known space can be found.
