And yes I don't deny that the city of Cleveland probably is more urban and dense, than Indianapolis. Which to me would make sense, since Indy didn't start to have a lot of population growth till the late 20th century. Cleveland had a head start on population growth, for sure.

The poster wants to continue the conversation in the historical tense but even that is a losing argument. Since the late 1800s Indianapolis has consistently one of the of the 25 largest cities in the United States which is a claim he can't make. He want to pretend that Indy was some small rural outpost prior to UniGov which is not true.
