As I said in the caveats, some cities have tight boundaries and others have loose ones, meaning some are smaller than they appear, and some are bigger than they appear.
London's boundary is extremely tight. The City of London only covers the roughly square mile within the Roman Walls, and with 12,156 people (2023 figures), it's the 4th least populous city in the UK, behind Wells, St Asaph and St David's. The urban area is over 650 times the area of the city proper, and about 800 times the population.
York's boundary is loose, with the settlement itself having 141,685, but rural hinterland within the boundaries adding an extra ~65k (ie nearly half as much again).
