I'm not a city person, but I've been to New York, DC, and Philly. Also Miami and Tallahasee...but I don't know the population of any.

 

[momofmany]

Grew up in Chicago and just got back from a week long trip there. Also lived in Houston which is pretty big. I now live in Kansas City.

Other cities I've visited: New York, Washington D.C., Boston, Los Angelos, San Diego, Phoenix, Tucson, Minneapolis, Dallas/Fort Worth, Austin, Panama City, St. Louis, Atlanta, Orlando, Miami, Tampa/St. Pete, Toronto, Detroit, Honolulu, Denver, Las Vegas. Some lesser sized cities: Kingston (Jamaica), Albequerque, Santa Fe, Louisberg (KY), Charleston, Raleigh.

I travel a lot.

I'm not sure... NYC, LA, Boston, Chicago, San Francisco, Miami, Dublin, Edinburgh, London, Frankfort (Germany)? I live in the Dallas metro area (used to live in Dallas proper), and it's fourth largest in the country now, I believe.

I read something the other day, though, that stunned me: that in China, there are something like eight cities we've never even heard of that are larger than NYC! It's hard to imagine how many people there are over there.

NYC I guess

This link has the world's largest cities and their populations.

 

[sarahp]

Whew - according to that link, Mumbai, India has 29,650 per sq/km! In comparison, by home town Brisbane (Australia), is the 122nd biggest city and has a massive 850 people per sq/km.

 

[ricalynn]

Seoul, South Korea - ~17.5mil according to your link, sarahp.

btw, congrats on the squirt!!!

Miami, FL - 4,919,000
Orlando, FL - 1,157,000

LA...ok, I was suttled from the airport to the hotel and shuttled back, so I got to see all of 3 miles of LA. Tokyo, but that time I didn't get to leave the airport. Honolulu, Charlette NC, Washington DC, Pittsburg, Ft Worth/Dallas, Richmond, VA. I judge a big city by the traffic, not the population because that doesn't take into account the people that are commuting from the suburbs. I know most people that work in DC don't live there, but the traffic is unreal!! If I have to close my eyes while on the highway so I don't panic (when DH is driving of course) I consider that a big city!
