The two big southern cities were
Charleston - In 1790, it was the 4th largest city, behind New York, Philadelphia, and Boston. It had 16,359 people. After 1840, it was no longer top 10.
New Orleans - In 1840, it was the 3rd largest city, behind only New York and Baltimore. It had 103,193 people. It was top 10 through 1880.
Not until Houston in 1960 would another southern city be top 10.
