There are no cities on the mainland.

Copenhagen is barely a city.

Interesting, why would you say so? Is it missing something you would expect in a city or is this just banter?

Copenhagen is on the smaller city for a city (Danish: storby). Population 400k or something like that (or 1.2M or something for the Greater Copenhagen Area, or more than that if you count the entire area linked by the S-train system and by that new light rail going from Ishøj round to... somewhere?).
One can argue whether Aarhus, Aalborg and Odense qualifies as cities, or if they're just towns (Danish by without "stor").
I was being a bit frivilous when I claimed that Copenhagen is Denmark's only city.

Aha I get you! The bigger the city, the better for is generally, but we have to balance that against cost of living I guess.

I'm not sure I said anything about that, one way or another.

You didn't say anything about cost of living, but you were saying that cities other than Copenhagen might be better qualified as towns. I picked up on that and added a random thought that occurred to me because I'm celebrating St Patrick's.

Copenhagen and Frederiksberg municipalities are close to 800k
