trouble on takeoff

Hi, ive always wondered what the procedure is on a simultaneous engine failure on takeoff (all out engine failure), in light aircraft its landing straight ahead, what about airliners?
and secondly what are peoples views on runways within proximity of a metropolitan area?is it not totally dangerous?looking at the likes of london city and the historic kai tac, if you suffered an all engines out failure on take off, you chances of survival are surely alleviated with a built up area directly on your departing path should you decide to force land straight ahead.thanks
