List of United States cities by area
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
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).
