Note that the Ming typeface used in Japan and Korea as well as the Kangxi dictionary uses a vertical dot for the upper component of 亠 which is slightly different from modern Chinese scripts which uses a slanting 丶 dot for the upper component of 亠 in 市.
市 (Kangxi radical 50, 巾+2, 5 strokes, cangjie input 卜中月 (YLB), four-corner 00227, composition ⿱丶帀 or ⿱亠巾)
This character is not to be confused with visually similar but unrelated 巿 (U+5DFF
), which has only four strokes and is written with 一 across the top of 巾.

Oracle bone script and bronze inscriptions: Phono-semantic compound (形聲/形声, OC *djɯʔ) : semantic 兮 (“bustling”) + phonetic 之 (OC *tjɯ).
