Anyhow, here is Forbes' Ranking of the World's Top 10 Billionaire Cities for 2021, this is based on CITY PROPER, so for New York, just the 5 boroughs(does not include CT, NNJ or Long Island, which would undoubtedly vault NY well past Beijing), and for SF, just the 47 sq miles--so SF now has 1 billionaire per square mile
Rank/City, Billionaires(change from last year)
1 Beijing, 100(+33)
2 New York, 99(+7)
3 Hong Kong, 80(+9)
4 Moscow, 79(+9)
5 Shenzhen, 68(+24)
6 Shanghai, 64(+18)
7 London, 63(+7)
8 Mumbai, 48(+10)
8 San Francisco, 48(+11)
10 Hangzhou, 47(+21)

That Forbes list doesn't square with this Forbes list for the same year. Above has the number for London at 63 yet below it says there are only 56 in the entire UK.
