No, nothing to do with drink. It's more to do with what sort of place people live.
No and no - it's to do with places - eg, the US doesn't have one because of Los Angeles, what is Los Angeles?
Los Angeles is a tip! Won't be going back there, once was one timetoo many!!
City of Angels... set in a basin... more thought required... Mrs Fez loves the question btw...
My only knowledge of the place comes from films & TV - but you are probably quite correct, given what I've seen.
Think 1) where Los Angeles is ranked in the US, and 2) size matters.
No, but you're getting onto the right track. What I'm looking for is a category that certain cities are in, and what qualifies them for that category. Going back to the wording of the question, this might help -
- In Victoria, 74%
- In New South Wales, 64.8%
- In South Australia, 73.4%
- In Western Australia, 74.5%
- In the Northern Territory, 53.5%
- In the Australian Capital Territory, 91.7%
- In Queensland however, 43.9%
- In Tasmania, only 38.1%
It is a megacity, population 10m+, and is larger than the capital. Not sure that is The answer.
The city is of a higher populace than the remaining State / Territory where it is situated?

L.A. was so bad we took a Greyhound bus to L.V. for the middle weekend. Truly awful. We made a mistake and should have gone to San Francisco not L.A.
Whoops!Tequila is a village!
In that case it certainly isn't the answer.
Not really.
In the UK, London is one of these mainly thanks to Birmingham. And size matters...
Firing a shot into the dark, BB, but keep this one going!
Is it to do with cities technically being a ‘metropolis’?

No. To confuse further, a city's population size in comparison to one other specific city is the main criterion used to establish whether or not a city can be called this. The term used was first coined in 1939.
'Chimpanzee' might be a better clue.
Has this got something to do with where the majority of people live in a state/country? Birmingham is generally known as the second city after London. So as the majority of people in Tasmania live in or around Hobart, there is no second city?
