From your post which states… “It's probably twice as big as Syracuse”, here is what Wikipedia says is the size of the larger consolidated metropolitan statistical area for Lincoln…
“Lincoln is considered the economic and cultural anchor of the substantially larger metropolitan area in southeastern Nebraska, the Lincoln Metropolitan and Lincoln-[URL='https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beatrice,_Nebraska']Beatrice[/URL] Combined Statistical Areas, which is home to 361,921 people, the [URL='https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Table_of_United_States_Combined_Statistical_Areas']104th-largest combined statistical [/URL]area in the United States. From Wikipedia’s own 2023 estimate the population estimate is now 366,021 people.
    And from Wikipedia regarding the population for Syracuse-Auburn Consolidated Metropolitan Statistical Area the 2023 population estimate is at 727,441 citizens.
     With all due deference to the advantages of comparing each metro area, it would appear that just the Syracuse area is actually about twice the population size of your comparison between good old Syracuse and Lincoln, NE. ;)
