LCS city names
/* City population < 100,000 = listed once if the city is somehow important
(i.e., biggest city in a U.S. state or territory, or most important city in a
metropolitan area with over 200,000 people)
100,000 < City population < 200,000 = listed once
200,000 < City population < 400,000 = listed twice
400,000 < City population < 600,000 = listed 3 times
600,000 < City population < 1,000,000 = listed 4 times
1,000,000 < City population < 5,000,000 = listed 5 times
5,000,000 < City population = city listed 6 times and each of its 5 its boroughs listed 1-2 times
Anyway, for states/territories without big cities their biggest city is listed once
