In what world is SF a small city?

When I saw the thread title, San Francisco was the city that instantly popped into my head. And then when I clicked on the thread, I saw the criteria.
San Francisco is physically small; it's basically 7 miles by 7 miles. In my multitude of visits to it, I think I can pretty much say that I've walked nearly in all sections of the city, and I've literally walked from east to west (Financial District to Sutro Baths), and north to south of it (Sutro Baths to Lake Merced). I didn't do both walks in the same day; I did east to west on one day and north to south another day... but I can say I've done both.
Seattle to me is a small city too. I've never been there, but I know the population is smaller than SF, and it's not big in area either. Maybe it's because I'm from LA? I have a friend who around 2001 or 2003 moved to Seattle, and after a year, he moved back to LA. He got bored with Seattle really fast.
