On "small city"
No.
5.5 Million is not "the size of a small city" in the US.
There is one (1) city in the US with a population in excess of five million: New York, at 8.3M (a shade smaller than London, which is 8.7M).
Of course, greater metro areas will have lots of people, but you didn't write that, so.
