Hi there reza,

Simply create a pivot table by using the wizard and dragging the cities
column in the Values.
Then right click the pivot table
select Value Field Settings
select Count

If you put City as a row and also City as a value. The city name will
appear once as a row and the city value will count the number of times the
city appears in your table. U could also use the Subtotal command
