After putting the map in your Downloads folder, you click on an empty small-sized city in your region. I don't remember the exact wording, but one of the options is to import a city to replace the currently selected city. When you choose that option, you will be asked to select the city from your Regions folder. Just choose the map from your Downloads folder.
If the map doesn't appear, make sure that you are clicking on a small-sized city. Import only shows cities of the appropriate size.
It's also possible that you need to rename the map file to "City - <city name>", so that it matches the names of other cities. However, I seem to remember that it's willing to open files with any name at all.
I thought of another issue: if you have just the base game, you will not be able to open maps created using Rush Hour or Deluxe.
Do you have a link to this map? I'd be happy to take a moment and see whether I can import it into my game.
