List of United States cities by population

The following is a list of incorporated places with the most people living in them in the United States. The United States Census Bureau says an "incorporated place" can have many names, such as city, town, village, borough, and municipality. A few special census-designated places (CDPs) are also in the Census Bureau's list of incorporated places. Consolidated city-counties are a type of place that includes all of a county, or something like it with a different name. Some consolidated city-counties, however, include more than one incorporated place. This list presents only that part (or "balance") of such consolidated city-counties that are not a part of another incorporated place.
50 states and the District of Columbia
The table below lists the 333 incorporated places in the United States with more than 100,000 people living in them on July 1, 2022, as estimated by the United States Census Bureau. A city is displayed in bold if it is a state or federal capital city, and in italics if it is the city with the most people of the state. Five states--Delaware, Maine, Vermont, West Virginia and Wyoming--do not have cities with more than 100,000 people living in them.
