Bigger scopes allow you to collect more light, so that narrow band filters can be used. For example i can see the Helix neb from melbourne with an OIII just as well as from dark skys without OIII. this applies to most nebulas and PLs. Galaxies, however are a write off from cities, but details on planets makes no difference where you are
