So 13,
Though the sizing here is counting city proper rather than the Metropolitan area. For example, Columbus is the largest city in Ohio, but its metropolitan area population makes it 3rd behind Cleveland and Cincinnati.
All but Jacksonville in the American top 20.
7 of Australia’s top 20 Metro Areas: Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Canberra, Gold Coast, Sunshine Coast, Geelong
Toronto - Lived there
Montreal - Yes

Halifax - Yes
Oshawa - Passed through it on the 401

St. John’s - No
So the only one I’ve definitely never been to is St. John’s. Likewise, Newfoundland & Labrador is the only province I haven’t visited.
All of them. All of the top 50, in fact.
Most of those.
I’m a little surprised about Honolulu being #54 on that list in the link. When I lived there, people liked to bandy about the “fact” that it was the 11th-largest American city. They must have been confusing the city population with that of Honolulu County, which covers the entire island of Oahu.
The Census Bureau treats Hawaii differently because it has no local government below the county level. The “city” of Honolulu on that list is just an arbitrarily-defined urban area. The state defines Honolulu County as a single city (none of the other counties are cities).
Boston, Chicago, LA, Nashville, and Memphis, San Antonio. that makes 6.
I visited Boston a few times when I was 6 and 7. We lived in Falmouth Mass. I think my dad flew into Boston coming back from Viet Nam.
