If we're going by this list of metro areas:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_metropolitan_areas_by_population

then my top 3 are:

(Shanghai....doesn't count because it was just an airport layover)
1) Jakarta
2) Beijing
3) New York City

Hm, if we're going by this then my top is:

1. New York
2. Moscow
3. Washington, D.C.
4. Boston

All the others don't enter the list. Funny how U.S. areas suddenly jump up the ranking when it's a metro area rather than a core city Tongue

Hey, if the topic had just said "biggest city" and you could interpret it as largest geographical area, Sanchez would have us all beat!

If I go by the city proper, it's either Moscow or Sao Paulo, depending on what year it's measured. Wikipedia currently has Moscow slightly larger. If I go by metro area it's clearly Sao Paulo.

I guess that'd be Moscow.  Didn't seem more populous than NYC but I suppose that's because it's so much more spread out.
