> Note that these numbers are of the Province of Barcelona. I don't know why you'd restrain yourself to the city proper.
The article, submission and discussions are about Barcelona city, not some far off town like Sant Joan de Vilatorrada (population: ~10k). No one who lives there would say they live in Barcelona, at most they'd say Manresa as that's the closest city.
