Is it a matter of the settlement's economy, population or military strength? Is it a combination of them? Or something else entirely?

Because you could have a small village that is the site of a strong garrison or a larger town that is protected by surounding military forts not located in or too near the town. Bu tI always had a hard time imagining how the size and economy didn't drive each other.
