    No clue about Japanese cities, but if you search for an American city’s population you’ll get the metropolitan population, not the greater city’s population. That’s how, according to Wikipedia, Sydney has a similar population to LA, despite LA having 10x the population density. If you include the suburbs LA is an order of magnitude larger than Sydney.
