To me anything smaller than 50K people is a town. 50K - 250K is a small city. 250K to 1 million is a medium city. 1 million to 5 million a large city. More than 5 million a mega city.

For these I'm talking about the continuous metro area. I grew up in a city of about 100K people made up of a half dozen or so "cities". Today I live in the Portland, OR metro that is 2.5 million people and dozens of "cities"

It was a big adjustment going from a city with a population of 100K to 1.7 million when we graduated from college and then to a small town of 30K and hour from a city of any size.
