Random cities in Massachusetts are mostly towns

Five cards in six are towns, and many are large. Plymouth, a town, has 67,846 people and Brookline 63,414, and 103 towns are bigger than Palmer, the smallest city. Nearly half of all the cards, 166, have under 10,000 people.

Fourteen counties, from Worcester to Nantucket

Worcester County has 60 cities and towns, the most, and Middlesex County 54. Suffolk County has four: Boston, Revere, Chelsea and Winthrop. Nantucket is a town and a county in one, so Nantucket County has a single card.

Franklin is in Norfolk County, not Franklin County, where the largest place is Greenfield.

How this list was compiled: All 351 cities and towns of Massachusetts, each with its county, its population and its place among the 351. Figures are the US Census Bureau's Vintage 2025 City and Town Population Totals, the estimates for 1 July 2025 (https://www2.census.gov/programs-surveys/popest/datasets/2020-2025/cities/totals/sub-est2025.csv, read 2026-10-09). The cities are the file's incorporated places and the towns its active county subdivisions; every municipality lies in one county. A place is called a city or a town as that file names it, with one change: East Longmeadow, a town in the file, has been a city in law since 1 July 2016 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/East_Longmeadow,_Massachusetts) and its card says city. That makes 59 cities and 292 towns, the counts of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_municipalities_in_Massachusetts. Thirteen cities that the file names with the word Town, as in Amherst Town city, go by the plain name. Places with the same estimate share the higher rank. The 351 names were compared with that Wikipedia list, which has the same 351; it was also read for the rule that tells a city from a town, for the 14 cities that still call themselves towns and for the fact that the state has no land outside a city or town. Nantucket's joint town and county government was read at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nantucket, Gosnold's islands at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gosnold,_Massachusetts and the state capital checked against https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_capitals_in_the_United_States the same day.
