Make up your mind. Are there “cathedrals”? Cathedrals are commonly located in cities.

Well, we have two cathedrals in Portland. We have a Basilica in Lewiston Maine.

“Well, we have two cathedrals in Portland.”

And that’s a city. See how that works? Also, you have exactly one actual Catholic cathedral in Portland, Maine: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cathedral_of_the_Immaculate_Conception_(Portland,_Maine)

Here’s how the population dropped from 1950 until 1980:

1950 77,634
1960 72,566
1970 65,116
1980 61,572

Although the population has increased since 1980 it is still not as large as it was in 1950.

“We have a Basilica in Lewiston Maine.”

Irrelevant. A basilica isn’t necessarily a cathedral and a cathedral isn’t necessarily a cathedral.
