But in terms of a city as a population and economic region I would still put San Francisco as a "mega city" for its population, economic impact and cultural impact. At least its right on the edge in the respect I dont know why 10 million is seen as the dividing line but in my mind thats what I was counting.
It's not just density. SF is obviously very dense, and L.A. doesn't get very dense in any single place. I've been to dense cities in Europe that have more pedestrian activity than L.A. but still feel much smaller (Amsterdam, for example).
