Not necessarily - cities are not required to have a mayor by state or federal law, but it is a popular method of organization, especially in large cities, because it establishes a very local government concerned almost exclusively with the city that it is running.

∙ 7y agoTypically a "town" does not have a mayor, instead they are run by an elected council or board (selectman is one title). A "city" usually indicates means there is a mayor. This person may be elected on his own, or may be a city council member elevated by the rest of the council.
