All people know that Bratislava is the biggest, and Kosice comes next, but then people usually don't know. I wanted to know the exact size order of cities, and here it is.
| 1. | Bratislava | 461459 |
| 2. | Kosice | 244876 |
| 3. | Presov | 96814 |
| 4. | Zilina | 88560 |
| 5. | Nitra | 85748 |
| 6. | Banska Bystrica | 85091 |
| 7. | Trnava | 73407 |
| 8. | Martin | 62841 |
| 9. | Trencin | 58537 |
| 10. | Poprad | 56874 |
As you see, some of the figures are close to eachothers and the order could easily change. Propably that is why people don't really know which city comes after Kosice.
