NOTES: The methodology for this initial list was asking Grok for the top 20 cities in each country in 1960, 1970, and 1980; and then combining the resultant data into tabular format and filling in missing data – because while cities in the US dropped off the list (like St. Louis) for a variety of reasons, much of their high end industry remained (McDonnell Douglas in St. Louis).
