In terms of metropolitan area, New York-Northeastern New Jersey (around 1930). Greater London had been the first to reach 7 million (by 1910) before being overtaken. Administrative areas are an unsatisfactory basis for comparison as some are far narrower than the total built-up area (the legal "City of London" is a tiny area at the centre of the metropolis).
