In the 2010 census, Compton had population 96,000 and Richmond had population 103,000. According to the Compton, California article, "[I]n 1973, Doris A. Davis defeated Dollarhide's bid for re-election to become the first African-American female mayor of a metropolitan city in the United States." This begs the question, how big is a "major" city.
