This is a list of the most populous incorporated places of the United States.

As defined by the United


States Census Bureau, an incorporated place includes cities, towns, villages, boroughs,
and municipalities.[a] A few exceptional census-designated places (CDPs) are also included in the
Census Bureau's listing of incorporated places.[b] Consolidated city-counties represent a distinct type
of government that includes the entire population of a county, or county equivalent. Some
consolidated city-counties, however, include multiple incorporated places. This list presents only the
portion of such consolidated city-counties that are not a part of another incorporated place.
This list refers only to the population of individual municipalities within their defined limits; the
populations of other municipalities considered suburbs of a central city are listed separately, and
unincorporated areas within urban agglomerations are not included. Therefore, a different ranking is
evident when considering U.S. urban areas or metropolitan areas.

50 states and Washington, D.C.


This table lists the 333 incorporated places in the United States, excluding the U.S. territories, with a
