Re: What City has the most First teams?

Let's just restrict the count to the teams showing that city as their location, then.
In the case of Toronto, we usually define it as the teams within the Metropolitan Area, i.e. any team who's postal code starts with an "M". Following this definition there are 23 teams from Toronto. (The three extra teams have listed their city via the old designations of the smaller boroughs which make up Toronto)

If we look at the Greater Toronto Area, we count that their are 34 teams.
