What you saw as the City of Buenos Aires functions as an Autonomous City, meaning they have seats in the Congress, and 3 seats in the Senate as all the other 23 provinces; everything around it (Villa Martelli, Florida, etc) are part of the Province of Buenos Aires. The City has a population of 2.9 million, making it the 4th most populated "province". The Province itself has 15.6 million, but most of them live around the City; the county of La Matanza (yeah, "The Killing"), which has a border with the City, has a population of 1.7 million. It's the only county in the Province with more than a million people.

"City" is a relative term. I live in Atlantic Canada where provincial capitals are sometimes under 100,000 people. In many countries, 100,000 people is considered a village. What amazes me is the fact that you can have compact metropolitan areas where the population equals or exceeds that of entire nations. There are a number of metropolitan areas that have more people than the entire population of Canada or Australia. Such places are absolutely incomprehensible to me as a Canadian.

I live in Buenos Aires City (the actual city, within the official city limits) and we are basically an other province/state, with our own governor, senators, etc. And some of our neighborhoods actually used to be completely separated cities, and bc of expansion they now are merely neighborhoods. All the metro area of the city are different small and big cities, but everything’s connected to everything and you can barely differentiate among cities. And i can confirm everyone wants to live within the official city limits bc you are closer to everything, is more secure, clean, etc. Except for wealthier people who move to gated communities, with artificial lakes, parks and big yards in the metro.

Where I grew up, there was a town about 80 miles away where all of the rich californians kept their winter vacation homes. A large percentage of the jobs were actually in that town, and people would commute 4 hours a day to work there. We would never consider ourselves part of that area though. Most of us shopped 100 miles away in another direction, and we don't consider ourselves part of that either. there were about 6 towns all within 30 miles of each other in that area, and all of them stayed fairly distinct, despite sharing two high schools, 2 junior high schools, and 3 elementary schools between them. Two of them kind of felt like they merged together in most people's minds, but they're the most distant from the others, close to each other, and both about 10% population of the other towns. Where I am now two of the towns, despite not being in city limits, are basically considered part of the city, while 4 others are largely distinct from it and have their own shopping areas, etc. I guess the difference is that two of the towns that aren't considered part of it are far away, ~30 miles, while two are within 15 miles, but have strong city governments of their own, while the two that are basically part of the larger city are mostly unincorporated and barely have any government of their own. A third area that was formerly unincorporated ended up getting gobbled up by the city years ago. This isn't a large city, only about 50k people. There's several percentage point sales tax difference between the unincorporated area and the city though, so some businesses moved out there instead.

I think the effect is driven by the fact that most of the best services/work/attractions are found in cities, because that's where the highest density of those things are. BUUUUUT lots of people want to live in a "smaller town" because the property is often nicer and houses are less cramped. Basically as more people move CLOSE to a city, that city effectively expands as the areas surrounding it become more populated. As those areas become more populated it presents a new market for business owners to set up shop there urbanizing it further. Now that "small town" is too urban so people move just outside it and the cycle continues.

I'm from Sweden, and now that I think about it, when someone outside of Scandinavia asks which city in Sweden I'm from, I say the name and that go like "iẗ́'s x hours by car south of Stockholm". Internally we almost never identify with Stockholm; in fact, we don't really like the inhabitants of the capital that much.

I live absolutely in the middle of one of the top 20 cities and i don't like it here. Too much pollution and people. It's very cheap here though compared to other cities of similar size.

As usual with datas on city size. The Urban areas vs metro problem is there. For exemple the first map takes into account Paris urban area (and shows the Rurh.) While the second shows Berlin urban area (and Paris and the Rurh just disappeared, even though both urban areas are larger than Berlin's urban area.) The metro area/agglomeration is super inconsistent.

it's the biggest problem with data on the matter, imo people who live in an urban area see the "metro area" as being a scam, and people who live in a metro area see the "urban area" as a scam

So even with small towns people do this. If you technically live in a town of 10,000 ,but the biggest town for say an hour drive is 20,000 it is easier to just say you live in the bigger place. I think the main reason we do this is that whoever we are talking to will most likely not know the place we are actually from, but will more likely know the bigger spot. I live in the state Oregon on the west coast of the US. People in America typically know where that is, but when I visited Europe I felt like I needed to say like Seattle or near California even though I lived like 7 hours away from both lol

I've have heard of the opposite sometimes due to rivalries. People despite living close to a city will swear up and down there town is not a part of it, despite it being basically in the metro area of the city.

TFW Toycat assumes that the green blob at 5:25 is Baltimore because nobody knows that your city exists :'( "Enfield? That's London. Romford? That's London. Philadelphia? That's Baltimore" lol And Toycat: "Small town feel" essentially means that wherever you go in the city, you'll know a couple people there and maybe even run into them. I've been to Alabama and South Carolina and met people who apparently know my mom or dad because they grew up in Northeast Philly. It makes a city feel friendly and comfortable for a resident. A city like LA or NYC lack that feel because they draw in so many out-of-towners while a city like Philadelphia (ha!) actually retains that despite being very large because so many of our residents are born and raised. And to answer your question at the end, I actually live within the city limits, but I can tell you most of our suburbs say they're "from Philly"

I think your theory is ok, but you should have adressed why this big cities formed. The main factors are: 1.- fresh water aviability 2.- arable land 3.- trade routes 4.- strategic defensive positions

I sometimes say I live in the tiny unincorporated community I live on the edge of (though I've barely met anyone else who lives there). I commonly say I live in the couple-thousand-person town I went to school in (because I'm in the school district). I sometimes mention the few-myriad-person county seat that's not much further and often mention the nearest major world city (about an hour away by car), but I basically never tell anyone other than software that I'm actually FROM those cities.
