that doest factor in Taxes, food or energy.
All you would be proving is an enormous income disparity in Oakland because the median income is nearly Identical.
Boston-Quincy Metro Division: 2 companies, $44.878 Billion Annual Revenue
84 Liberty Mutual Insurance Group $34.671 Billion
262 State Street Corp. $10.207 Billion

LOL...Boston is not known for low taxes just like the Bay Area so I dont get that--and property taxes are wayyy higher in Boston than out here.
As far as income disparity, SURE The East Bay is home to lots of rich people and lots of poor people that are clawing their way into assimilation in a new country.
Foreign Born Population, 2010 Census 5-year Estimate
Oakland-Fremont-Hayward 697,352
Boston-Quincy 333,091
Anyway, we all know that Boston has wayyy greater population density than Oakland--thats's undebatable, but we do score points on the Metro Division level as far as how far density spreads out from Oakland itself.

That map is wrong that puts somervill under 5000ppsm when it has 1800ppsm
truth is i could find a quadruillion numbers that put Boston ahead of Oakland, but it is pointless, you are agruing the equivilant to Providence>Houston because look at the CSA

Anyway, Piedmont is a uber wealthy town that is completely surrounded by the city of Oakland on all sides.
