What is a city?
A city in France must have at least 2000 inhabitants according to the INSEE.
This definition is very different depending on the country where you live.
In Denmark, it is enough to have more than 250 inhabitants.
In Japan, the opposite is true: you need to have 30,000 inhabitants.
In the United States, since 1900, a city must have more than 2,500 agglomerated inhabitants.
In this same country, in the USA, we distinguish as follows:
- city
- town
- village
- boroughs
In conclusion, the definition of a city can differ radically from one country to another. See the definition of city for INSEE.
Hello, I can’t find any mention of your identity anywhere. Who are you ? an independent group? teachers, students, former students… You do not systematically cite your sources… As a result, without an author and without a source your level of reliability is close to zero. Maybe you should consider creating an “about” tab that would be a good start. Good on you.
Hello, Thank you for your comment. We understand your need to trace the sources, and to be reassured about the reliability of the statement. Our intention is more to help students of political science, rather than to replace wikipedia, to make a career on our names, or to write scientific articles. We take great care to ensure that all information is correct, and we have every interest in doing so, otherwise the site would not have the success it has today. However, we understand and appreciate your proposal, and we will take it into account in our reflections on the future of this site. Have a nice week, The Academics in Politics team
