Got 17, which is odd considering I got 20 on this quiz this morning

Probably because some of the places on that quiz aren’t legal cities. For example, Alice Springs is not a legal city.

Some of the circles are a bit misleading but overall good quiz. Just a curiosity question but do you know why all LGAs that are "City of" in WA - mainly around Perth are legally cities but this is not the same for places in Melbourne or Sydney?

I found an error. Firstly, Coffs Harbour is in the wrong spot (it should be in NSW but the map has the dot in Queensland (north of Brisbane). Also, you forgot to add Port Macquarie (NSW), it has over 50,000 people. Please fix these errors.

Also you forgot the Central Coast (>300,000).
