Today's Swedish terminology makes no difference between city and town, both concepts translates to the single word "stad", but sometimes town can be rendered "småstad". Statistics Sweden defines a "stad" as an urban area (in Swedish: tätort) of at least 10,000 inhabitants.
• Turkey
There are some definitions of city in Turkey. Older definition which defines the city as a settlement with more than 20 000 inhabitants is out of use and a city is usually defined as the administrative center of a province (Turkish: il) There are 81 provincial centers in Turkey. However some of the district centers (Turkish: ilçe) are more populous and more developed than the provincial centers.
But in 1984, the metropolitan center concept was introduced. (Turkish: Büyükşehir) According to definition (revised as of 2004) a metropolitan center is a city with more than 750 000 inhabitants. At present 16 of the provincial centers are metropolitan centers.
