This study provides new comparative evidence on city size distribution in OECD (the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development) countries, by using consistently defined functional urban areas (FUAs). FUAs are identified by an algorithm based on population density at grid level and commuting patterns and are thought to better approximate economic agglomerations and their internal spatial...
