Why yes I can

Native Orange pretty much answered you for me, I have shown you on a county level and on a MSA/CSA level where nothing in NJ or NNJ can even come close, go ahead and throw in NYC if you must but then again if you do you have admitted this thread is done, don't you think?

Done with what exactly? Did you even read the OP? I think you are mistaken in whatever direction or vibe you feel this thread has taken.

This misconception you had about Los Angeles and its burbs, I think it is fair to say that this thread was an apples to oranges comparison.

In my OP, and the title, I state LA county has more people than NJ as whole, and most are on the southern half. My title says LA is denser than NNJ.

I simply went off on a little tangent later on. I am playing around with some numbers and thoughts in my head. I found that LA city is same size as Morris County NJ, and that is perfect because like LA city, the NYC suburbs are just west of it (Morris County). I am trying to juxtapose LA urban area onto NNJ, and trying to picture what it will look and feel like.

What misconception do I have? That LA urban area is a sprawling suburb? It still is, at least visually. I visited before. It does not look any different than driving around Long Island or NNJ.

Is it not on the southern half? You are talking about the San Fernando Valley right?

Yes...

If you're talking about the urban metro area or like contiguous urban area that would be like the northern half..
