    The size of the largest metropolitan areas in the world is almost incomprehensible, all are larger than many nations. Here's a list of the ten largest metropolitan areas (also known as urban agglomerations, among other things) along with their current estimated population:


    Rank City Population
    1 Tokyo, Japan 28 million
    2 New York City, United States 20.1 million
    3 Mexico City, Mexico 18.1 million
    4 Mumbai, India (Bombay) 18 million
    5 Sao Paulo, Brazil 17.7 million
    6 Los Angeles, United States 15.8 million
    7 Shanghai, China 14.2 million
    8 Lagos, Nigeria 13.5 million
    9 Kolkata, India (Calcutta) 12.9 million
    10 Buenos Aires, Argentina 12.5 million
