The US has cities, I believe.

Ah yes it's US cities in particular, yeah.

American cities certainly are.

OP asked about cities in the USA. ;-)

chrisseaton | karma 36438 | avg karma 2.64 · | 2021-10-30 05:27:40

In the US almost all residential areas count as cities. For example there are tens of cities in just the Bay Area alone.

Sure, but many cities in the world are not in the US.

triceratops | karma 5848 | avg karma 1.88 · | 2023-02-23 10:41:13

Yeah, they're called city-states for a reason.

Obviously my comment was about American cities.

Now do American cities

api | karma 31631 | avg karma 2.2 · | 2018-03-06 01:00:40+00:00

There are dozens of large cities all across America and hundreds of smaller ones.

tptacek | karma 394296 | avg karma 6.04 · | 2018-05-03 22:43:35+00:00

Ok, but those US cities are only something like 16% of the US urban population in cities over 100,000 residents.

c3534l | karma 6371 | avg karma 4.35 · | 2017-07-28 23:15:56+00:00

So, basically in America's biggest cities. Thanks.

philistine | karma 3455 | avg karma 1.99 · | 2024-02-03 09:06:14

Exactly. Look at population density inside those cities. You'll find the US is living in what they call cities, but that they are all far from one another compared to the rest of the world.

rsynnott | karma 18312 | avg karma 2.1 · | 2017-12-30 11:04:39

Smaller American cities, maybe?

sneak | karma 23753 | avg karma 1.62 · | 2023-11-20 09:57:55

In major cities in the US.

scatters | karma 1352 | avg karma 2.18 · | 2021-06-21 10:34:38+00:00

Isn't that called a city?

jandrewrogers | karma 16134 | avg karma 5.16 · | 2022-05-11 09:36:53

The US has 50-60 cities with 1+ million people. You may be conflating administrative boundaries with cities.

fargo | karma 389 | avg karma 2.97 · | 2020-02-04 21:19:14

US is not a homogeneous set of cities

zevyoura | karma 1051 | avg karma 2.43 · | 2014-11-26 15:15:41

All American cities, and nearly all international cities.

Fomite | karma 7511 | avg karma 2.48 · | 2019-04-22 22:30:41+00:00

Except that the cities in question are not exclusively American...

sp332 | karma 55607 | avg karma 2.75 · | 2013-01-22 09:58:17

The USA has been "urbanizing" itself for decades. More than half the population now lives in cities.
