*Admittedly, these cities are places where I wasn't sure if they were actual cities until I looked them up, or while looking up correct spelling of other cites I was familiar with these places and left them off.

NY is complicated because you have towns, hamlets, village, cities etc ... not everywhere is a 'city'
While possibly true, I assumed the thread included census designated places (CDP's). Case in point for my homestate, Hershey PA does not actually exist as a city, borough, or township, but rather as a CDP (technically it is Derry Township).
All good either way. I think this challenge is already hard enough naming 50! (:
I think CDP's should count though, otherwise the challenge is even more difficult.

I wrote these out as they came to my mind. The largest ones came to me pretty easily and I'm sure mostly in order of size. I then began thinking of suburbs of the various cities and other cities would pop into my mind. I slowed down with the last fifteen or so but started getting more names in my mind. I also started going back to suburbs, mostly in El Paso and towns near New Mexico.

Gotta say, I've been all over Florida a zillion times for business, pleasure, and watching Spring Training. And those last ten came really, really hard.
