I thought that was what they were called, but the row houses in Houston are not stuck together only our townhouses are stuck together.

But if it makes you happy, you can go around saying Philly has a larger metro, and throw in a couple of vibrants and densities while you are at it

Well I do know more people live in the area than Houston, and yes I would agree Philly is far more vibrant than Houston

Yes the metro is, was the point - and yes there is a correlation between GDP and size, even if not always equivelent
