Dallas is a bit odd in that the farthest northern part of the city isn't in Dallas county.
But generally, if Dallas city and Dallas county consolidated and lopped off the upmost bit, it would be 2,492,850 people in 880 sq. miles of land (total county is 908 sq. miles with water).
Not really my town anymore, but I grew up in San Antonio. It has exceeded the county line limits for a number of years, so it would be smaller in both physical size and population if it consolidated with Bexar county and rolled back to those limits.
Charlotte-Mecklenburg would be 529 sq. miles and about 914k. More dense than Raleigh.
That would make Charlotte the 49th biggest city in the country.

Oh wow, SF would drop to the 63 biggest city in the US. Smaller than places like Mt Clemens Michigan, Hackensack NJ, Clayton Missouri and Rockville Maryland.

It is funny, Dallas would be in the exact same spot it is now, the 8th largest city in the US. That is odd.

Not true. Bexar is bigger than SA in both Physical size and population.
The City Population would increase from 1.4M to 1.6M and the size would increase from 412sq miles to 1257sq miles
That would make Charlotte the 49th biggest city in the country.

Charlotte is currently already 18th largest. It would move up to like 16th or 15th I think. FYI, it's desnity would by 1700k/sg mi
Youngstown would jump from 72k to 237k people. Land area would jump from 33.9 square miles to 423 square miles.
