Americans have no true megapolis scale cities by population. The biggest American city, New York, is number 28 on the world list. London is 27. The first “western” city is Mexico City at 23. Of course by GDP it would look different. And “city” is not consistently defined.

Here's Wikipedia's ranking, puts NYC in top 10 but not top 5. Tokyo still number 1.

I spoke too soon - in the most recent data, NY is #9 in metropolitan area. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_metropolitan_areas_by_population … And #8 by urban area https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_urban_areas_by_population … But there's a whole bunch of cities in the 20-25 million range on both measures, so no big differences up and down.

What's really striking to me is how comparatively tiny European cities are.
