Yes, it is pretty much the level of query I use to filter out the "I know SQL" people that dont have a clue about the language.

Lets see whether I get that together.

SELECT city, count() from TABLE GROUP BY city HAVING COUNT() >3

Simple beginner SQL

Not sure mysql supports it ;) But it is apart of the standard for ages.

Yes it is:

SELECT city, COUNT(id) AS [rowcount]
FROM YourTable
GROUP BY city
HAVING COUNT(id) > 3
