[Tucson, AZ (545,975), San Diego, CA (1,425,976), Colorado Springs, CO (472,688), Miami, FL (470,914), Lexington, KY (323,780), St. Paul, MN (307,695), Henderson, NV (310,390), Raleigh, NC (469,298), Cleveland, OH (383,793), Tulsa, OK (400,669), Pittsburgh, PA (301,048), Memphis, TN (650,618), San Antonio, TX (1,532,233)]
Kinda interesting ... despite being the 4th most populous state, and having the most populous city in the US, it only has 1 other city over 250,000 (Buffalo and if trends hold, that'll change after the Census) and only 5 total over 100,000 (as many as CT).

I did learn while researching my Buffalo TD that some think the city's decline will reverse in coming decades as the region's climate and access to water position it as a refuge against the worst of climate change. We'll see.
