In the United States, I’d probably name Oregon City, the famous end of the Oregon Trail and the first city founded west of the Rocky Mountains during the pioneer era. Its population is only 37,000.

      San Jose metro area is enormous though. For example I’d consider Gilroy (which is famous for its garlic) as being completely separate from San Jose even though it’s well within San Jose’s metro area.
