AND YET ... More people live in Los Angeles County (10 million) than in New York City (8.5 million) and 43 of the 50 states. But LA County is 4,000 square miles / 2,100 density while NYC is only 304 square miles / 27,000 density.
The counties get larger and larger in land area as you go further west away from the east coast.
Yeah this thread was a subliminal booster lol ,My problem with the population in Nyc is that its cut up & combined by 5 different counties that make up 1 city so i always view Manhattan as the city of Nyc to make things more easier to compare,Like out in LA some use it as the city & some us it as a county & that's where things get tricky,Nyc is big far as population goes because its built in a vertical system but very small in land size.So to compare to Nyc,ill compare it to cook county since it's 5 counties by itself.Still has more people than any county outside of LA county in the country.
NYC five counties combined is smaller in land area than LA county alone, I believe. I think LA County in land area is much more massive than NYC. I am not sure though.
I wasn't saying that at all. I agree with what you said and its what I said in another thread. The problem of L.A. CSA is that including the whole SB and RV counties is too much. the only part that should be included are Western portions of those counties and cities in those parts Everything as far west as Chino hills and all the cities in between(Corona, Ontario, Riverside, Rancho Cuchamanga, Riverside Etc.) and as far East as San Bernandino- Redlands-Banning/Beaumont. Nothing more east than that should count in the L.A. CSA. It's empty out there.
Yea but outside of Palm Springs area, pretty much one lives out there. So including all of SB county doesn't really make that much of a difference.
Same goes for Riverside County. I'd probably cut off the whole Temecula area as that is San Diego Exurbia, but other than that, yea.

I think the palm spring areas should be It's own called "cochella valley" or something to me palm springs is isolated and is It's own region in a way, but sure we can go as far east as palms springs it wouldn't hurt.
I agree with leaving out murrieta and temecula I also consider them as San Diego exurbia. Most of the locals channels there are SD based, few are L.A. based.

LA county is double the land area of Delaware. NYC five "counties" combined are smaller than Los Angeles city limits in land area.
Riverside county is a bit smaller than New Jersey, but there is a whole lotta desert to the east.
Out west counties actually mean something, the east was settled differently.
