difference between city population size and metropolitan size is a little confusing and kind of dumb at times. Vancouver is a pretty small city, but it brings in all of the Lower Mainland which is actually pretty big
city ------- pop --- metro
NY---------8m------19m
Chicago----2.5m----9.5m
LA---------3.8m----12.8m
Toronto----2.6m----6m
Van--------0.6m----2.3m
but then you have places like calgary that are stand alone
Calgary----1.1m----1.2m
