This list ranks U.S. cities by land area (not including bodies of water). Total areas are also given. If ranked by total area, a number of coastal cities would appear disproportionately "larger". San Francisco is an extreme example; water makes up nearly 80% of its total area of 232 square miles (601 km²).
