About 41 cities are in Australia.

If by "city", you mean a settlement with a population of over 100 000, here is a list:

1: Sydney / New South Wales - 4,504,000

2: Melbourne / Victoria - 3,995,000

3: Brisbane / Queensland - 2,004,000

4: Perth / Western Australia - 1,658,000

5: Adelaide / South Australia - 1,187,000

6: Gold Coast-Tweed Heads / Queensland & New South Wales - 577,000

7: Newcastle / New South Wales - 540,000

8: Canberra-Queanbeyan / ACT & New South Wales - 403,000*

9: Wollongong / New South Wales - 288,000

10: Sunshine Coast / Queensland - 245,000

11: Hobart / Tasmania - 212,000

12: Geelong / Victoria - 175,000

13: Townsville / Queensland - 168,000

14: Cairns / Queensland - 147,000

15: Toowoomba / Queensland - 128,000

16: Darwin / Northern Territory - 124,000

17: Launceston / Tasmania - 105,000

18: Albury-Wodonga / New South Wales & Victoria - 104,000

A Few Notes...

* These are the true cities, there are some places in Australia considered as "cities" because of some stupid complicated laws, but they don't have 100,000 people which is the international standard of a city.

* If you're wondering why some cities are in both states, that's because some cities in Australia are spilt in two because they're built on the state border. Gold Coast-Tweed Heads is one city with the state line in between them, so they're named separately but are one city really. Canberra-Queanbeyan is the same story, Albury-Wodonga is historically built on both sides of a river which divides the states of New South Wales and Victoria.

* From this list Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, Canberra (but not Queanbeyan, but they're still considered as one city), Hobart, and Darwin are state capitals. Canberra is the capital of Australia itself as well.

* The town of Ballarat in Victoria is most likely soon to become a city, with a population of 94,000 and climbing.
