Kinda late, but I know there is also a substantial cappadocian population as well, such as in nea karvali, neo prokopi and nea sinasos. Anywhere else where they are the overwhelming majority?

You weren't de-Slavicized anything. You were exchanged with the Strumica Greeks when Strumica (a greek name from Strymona river) was ceded to Bulgaria in the treaty of Βucurest in 1913.
They were given the option Bulgarianism or death so they were expelled to Greece. The 6000 Bulgarians (were they really Slavs or Slavicized Greeks; decide!) were expelled to the now Bulgarian territory of Strumica and the Greeks of Strumica replaced them to the 500 Greeks already there, and later, 6000 more Pontins were brought in, by necessity, it's not like they wanted to live there and leave their ancestral homelands. Ever heard of the Pontian genocide?

Generally all around.
In this book, you can see the places families were settled in 1956 (page 20/286) and their profession.

Generally Northern Greek cities, Athens but there are some families that settled in Corfu and Peloponnese.

No such group of people exist in Greece let alone any part of the city populated by them. To Greeks they are known as Pontians or Pontians from Cappadocia. Now if some union of Cappadocians was created in Karvali or elsewhere in Athens it doesn't mean there is a population of them living there. It's because Athens is the most populous city in Greece.
There is a Greek politician that says he has roots from there though: Velopoulos and he comes from Kilkis..but hisnfamily originate from Cappadocia.
Spoiler!

What about Russopontians ? Did they settle rather in Athens ?
