I think you need to use city proper population for the quiz to work, but, when thinking of cities in practical terms, it's very misleading. Consider: Jacksonville's city-proper population is 1.1 million, which is just shy of double Boston's. Is Jacksonville "twice as big a city as Boston"? In the literal sense, yes, but not in the sense of "big" meaning "culturally significant." If we expand to metro area, Jacksonville's population is about 1.7 million. Boston's is about 5 million, or about three times larger than Jacksonville's (and nine times larger than Boston's "proper" population). That figure captures Boston's true "bigness" in the US.
Canada is out of order alphabetically as well
