Does a city have to have a Catholic cathedral to be a city?

In: Catholicism [Edit categories]

Answer:

No, cities can have cathedrals (although not necessarily Catholic) to be cities but other things like good universities (e.g. Cambridge) can also allow a city to be designated as such.
Factors like population, area, or if it has a swimming pool have no affect on categorisation of cities. :)
