British Columbia
See also: List of municipalities in British Columbia and List of settlements in British ColumbiaIn British Columbia, a community can be incorporated as a city if its population exceeds 5,000. Once so incorporated, a city does not lose this status even if its population later declines; the once-thriving city of Greenwood, for example, now has a population of just 625 people.
