Lvl 9 and 10 turrets with max shooting have a range of 1000 and 1050. Catapults max range is 960. Lvl 10 turrets (with maxed shooting) are by far the best city defense. The first reason being, to take them out, your enemy's catapults have to take a hit. The second reason is, Catapults suffer detriments when attacking Turrets, they will deal 70% less damage to turrets. Third, Your field length will be maximized, at 1350.
As Jex said, they do not stand up well to cavs. People who roll cav armies will have maxed speed, this will allow the cavs to reach your turrets in 2 rounds. Round 1 the turrets will kill roughly 1000 cavalry, round 2, roughly 700 and round 3, roughly 300. With enough catapults blasting away from safely behind the turrets, you will be able to fend off a decent force of cavs if you know what you are doing.
