These people are all correct when talking about the city limits proper. However, Denver is slightly unusual because it limited itself to future growth many years ago by not allowing taller buildings to be built and by setting it's city limits firmly. Most cities still are growing both up and out.
If you talk metro areas, that's a whole other ball of wax. I don't think Denver is still anywhere near #4, but it's probably higher than 25 or 26.

The fourth largest is Houston (preceded by New York, Los Angeles, and Chicago). I know that one well as I lived there 13 years (and just moved from the L.A. area). Denver is all the way down at No. 26 on the list of largest U.S. cities.

Mile High Denver is nice, but alas, it is smaller than a lot of more famous cities, that aren't as much fun, or friendly. It was called "the Queen City" of the plains back when men were men, and sheep were nervous...
