Apparently, there are 310 cities and nearly 19,500 total number of incorporated cities, towns, villages and boroughs across the U.S. Twenty five thousand small towns is a reasonable estimate.

That's a bit misleading as it's going by the actual city population and not the metro area. For instance, SF proper is only about 850k, but the metro is 5M... 9M if you count Oakland, etc.
