Adjectivecity SynonymsFrom Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. A city (from Latin civitātis), is a relatively large and permanent settlement, particularly a large urban settlement. Although there are no agreed on technical definitions distinguishing a city from a town within general English language meanings, many cities have a particular administrative, legal, or historical status based on local law — for example an article of incorporation approved by the local cognizant (state) legislature separates towns from city government forms, rights, duties and privileges in Massachusetts — similar distinctions are made across the world, particularly in former colonies of the United Kingdom. Historically, in Europe, a city was understood to be an urban settlement with a cathedral; in later usages, especially in the United Kingdom and parts of Commonwealth of Nations, a city was a settlement with a royal charter. Cities generally have advanced systems for sanitation, utilities, land usage, housing, and transportation and more. This proximity greatly facilitates interaction between people and businesses, benefiting both parties in the process. A big city, or metropolis, may have suburbs and regions. Such cities are usually associated with metropolitan areas and urban sprawl, creating large numbers of business commuters. Once a city sprawls far enough to reach another city, this region can be deemed a conurbation or megalopolis. From Wikipedia under the

Out of all the cities in the United States, which city would you recommend a friend to see and why?

There are a few cities I recommend everyone visit at least once in their lifetime: Boston - for sports fans, Fenway Park is Mecca, one of only 2 remaining classic ballparks (Wrigley in Chicago is the other one), and the whole area is steeped in history that predates the majority of the rest of the country. Philly and DC - again, from a historical standpoint, these 2 cities are a "must see". Plan on at least 2 days for the Smithsonian alone... New Orleans - a party town - fun and vibrant - and a testimony to the inadequacies of the federal government. Las Vegas - yes, the casinos and shows are great, but the surrounding area is fantastic, too - Lake Mead , the Hoover Dam, Redrock Canyon & Valley of Fire are must see s.
