Phoenix. 2019 US Census Bureau estimate: Phoenix 1,680,000. Philly: 1,584,000
I actually looked it up after posting, and I would have never guessed that... I still think of "big" cities as being Northern and Eastern/Midwestern... I forget about the SunBelt.

Well...you really are living in the past. Pre-air conditioning!!
Of the 11 cities left to be named, all but I would say 2 of them would be what could be called "Sun Belt" Cities; i.e neither in the Northeast or Midwest. I would say that 1 is in the Northeast, 1 in the midwest and the rest southeast, southwest, or west.

Utica......this was the answer until recently until....hint, a large LA suburb overtook it.
V
Yakima

Of these tries, Only El Paso is correct. But good tries

Further hint....only one of the letters left is a city that has a "Major league" sports team. (Think: Ghoolie) Plus, maybe another "half city"...you'll get it when that answer comes. For another....think, President's middle name.
-
A Austin
M Minneapolis - Twins Vikings Timberwolves.
Z Zanesville
Check only on Austin.
Zanesville would have been the right answer not too long ago and for decades before that, but, again, another of those big suburbs has come along and displaced Zanesville.

The big suburb gave me a hint. Mesa Arizona?
Can't think of a "Z" (or any of the others) although doesnt Las Vegas have a very large suburb?
