Abstract: This note is a reply to Kim's critique on my paper concerning Simon's city-size distribution model. First, Kim's critique is shown not to be relevant. Second, to make the debate constructive, a possible direction toward a more general city-size distribution model is shown in the context of a Markov population process.
