What are the population intervals that indicate interesting things to do?

10,000 = good coffee?
50,000 = microbreweries?
100,000 = quality strip clubs?
1,000,000 = world class library?
3,000,000 = fried ravioli?

What are the benchmarks?

My friend is letting me stay at her apartment while she's out of town. I'm not crazy about the area but the apartment is really cool and the view from her windows is incredible
