Which proves my point even more. Why compare a city with that many people with one with a lot less?
BTW, I said metro, not CSA
I know you said metro, but I felt the CSA was a better measurement for this thread.
For example, by measuring the number of combined in a statistical area = more people commuting for jobs = more buildings = denser skyline.
MSA would only measure the number of people living a geographical area around the city. Not those who live out further, yet still work in the city.
I.e. Plenty of people live In RI and work in Boston, yet they are not included as part of the Boston MSA area. yet those people still contribute to the floorspace taken/needed in Downtown Boston which increases demand for buildings.
I was just reaffirming your post earlier on the boston/abq skyline comparison.
Even with being a HUGE fan of Columbus, I still would have put it lower than 22, actually probably would have swaped it and Cincy spots.
Also probably would have given Dayton the edge over Toledo, and moved Rochester up, and Southfield down, way down. You also forgot Akron, whch would finish about in the 100's to 110's, and Youngstown, which may round off the list.
