    This site states the following:
    Tokyo 34.8 million, New York 20.2 million, Seoul Korea 19.9 million, Mexico City 19.8 million and Sao Paulo Brazil 17.9 million. Bombay and Osaka also each have 17.9 million.

    123

    I don't have the information right now, but I do believe the information supplied by finlady, is of the metropolitan areas, because New York City alone does not have 20.2 million people. New York is not the second largest city in the world, it is much farther down.

    123 is correct I went back and looked and those statistics are urban. Thanks, but I searched the net and cannot come up with just the city population.
