What word(s) do English speakers use for this word?
i wonder if your countries where people speak English use these words "first-grade city" ; "grade-two city"; "special city" ; "third-grade city"....
these words indicate how big and prosperous cities are. but i don't know what words you use for them. because of the uneven development of cities in my country, so we have these terms to category them. please help me, thank you.

There are no words like that for cities in the common lexicon. There are, however, words used by sociologists and in urban studies to describe cities with regard to how they are positioned in the global arena - in order from most influential to least, they are called Alpha, Beta, and Gamma cities. org/wiki/Global_city ]the Wikipedia page on global cities[/url] for more info.
