City (One and only One) Reading. Pennsylvania uses the term Borough for what most people would call a town. They also have a series of Townships and unincorporated or Census designated places. In theory Pennsylvania only contains one or two towns.
They list 29 Boroughs, 44 townships and nine Census-designated places. Some places like to hang onto terms like parishes simply to confuse the out of state (or out of Commonwealth) riff-raff.
It is kind of like Celsius versus Fahrenheit, Kilometers versus miles, Acres versus Hectares, bushels and pecks, (or for example with wine where you have a picolo, demi, Standard, Magnum, Jeroboam, Rehoboam, Methuselah, Mordechai, Balthazar, Nebuchadnezzar, Melchior, Solomon, Soverign, Primat, and Melchizedek), liters and gallons, meters versus yards, or inches versus those centisomethings.
They have a 2000 Census population of 373,638 and they can't all be living in Reading which had a 2000 Census population of only 81,207 residents. We need to better define what is a City, a Town and a Village. Can't we all just get along.

Are cities called counties in Ireland?
Nope. For example, the city Belfast is in County Antrim. Some cities have the same name as the county they are in, like Dublin. A county is an administrative region. A city is a large urban area, so they are different things. Many counties don't have cities. In Ireland the term city is not used for towns, so only very large urban areas are cities. As a result a lot of counties don't have cities, but do have lots of towns. Some of those towns are the same names as the county that they are in. Sometimes, though not always, the biggest town in a county has the same name as the county, but sometimes the a town that has the same name as the county it is in is not the largest town in the county.
