This working paper assesses whether it is possible to construct standardised geographical definitions of cities that will allow American and European cities to be compared in a consistent manner. It focuses on the US system of Core Based Statistical Areas (or Metro Areas), Eurostat’s Urban Audit programme and the Greater London Authority ‘pragmatic-functional’ approach.
