City is an example of a statistic.

Explanation: A statistic is a number used to communicate a piece of information. Statistics is
defined as a science of collecting, organizing, presenting, analyzing, and interpreting data to
assist in making more effective decisions. Raw data would be a list of all commercial flights
between the two cities and the number of passengers on each, while statistics would take that raw
data and create summary measures, such as determining the mean or average for these flights.
