Um what? Since when are Miami and Tampa considered mid-size?

Orlando is 2.8 mil metro, Tampa is 4.2 mil metro, Miami is 5.5 mil metro, Jacksonville is 1.3 mil.

All of them are bigger than the other cities outside NYC.

Buffalo is 1.2 mil, Albany is 870k, Rochester 1 mil , Syracuse 600k.

Not sure his logic, considering Texas has a higher population than NY already, yet also has no cities approaching the size of NYC. Miami is definitely a "major global city" ... I'd probably call Orlando and Tampa major cities at this point also.

I was giving him/her the benefit of the doubt with Orlando and Jacksonville.

There's no doubt about Miami-Dade County,Tampa and Orlando being major cities in Florida.

Which state relaying more on one city,NY state or Florida?

Fixed that for you.

Not sure the point of your question, New York is the answer. But we've only brought these numbers up to question why Optimus is calling them "mid-size".

Texas will surpass California by 2090. That is so statistically far from happening. Not even in our lifetimes.

Funny thing is Jambo creates the "paradise" theme himself and then attribute to others. In less than 3 minutes, I found 68 posts that Jambo was explaining Florida is not paradise. I guess he is learning from himself
Lmao!!! I'm dying over here with laughter..

Well Upstate NY sucks so I can see why Florida is getting an increase.
