Minneapolis should be among those skylines that easily beat uptown. I placed it in there for you. Does Louisville, including skyline, get any attention on this forum?
Thx, I knew I missed some.
Louisville doesn't get much that I've seen...I've visited a couple of times and I loved it, and it does have a nice skyline.
San Jose easily (I found this out by accident just ast week). The others don't even compare. Can you believe that this city has a population of just under a million:
Ah, but at night:
Talk about spread out. The American Dream: a house with white picket fence and two car garage for everyone!
I believe the metro is 650,000 when you also count the cities of York and Lancaster, which really aren't dependent on the Harrisburg area and are pretty much their own metro areas.
Nope. Actually, the Hbg MSA doesn't include those cities. It stretches west to Carlisle, and only slightly east. It's a legitimate metro area.
I thought the same thing, what does a skyline have to do with the number of people living in arbitrary city borders. SF only has about 700k people living in SF but the metro area is much larger, same with Boston and DC.
I don't really understand the question.
Agreed!
If it were just about the population with the city limits, then Miami would have the most impressive skyline. The actual city of Miami is only between 400,000-500,000 people (depending on who you ask) on only 35 square miles. Yet, it has one imressive skyline! The entire metro has to be taken into account. One cannot compare, apples to apples, the places with seemingly endless city limits (Nashville, Kansas City, Jacksonville, Oklahoma City, Charlotte) to those with much smaller city limits withn a larger metro (Miami, San Francisco, Milwaukee, Boston)
If Miami consolidated its city with its county the way that Nashville/Davidson did or like Jacksonville, where it's practically the entire county, it would be one of the largest cities in America. But, as it stands, the metro is one of the 7 largest in the nation and the city isn't even in the top 30.

So true, in a way the Miami skyline is deceiving, because it's skyline makes the city look bigger then it really is. It's basically the OPPOSITE of Jacksonville.
And if the WHOLE city of Miami were Dade County, then Miami would be the 4th largest in the US.

San Jose is shadowed by the fact that San Francisco is at the center of things in the Bay Area. It's unequivocal how the two are foils of each other.
Understood, i think Dade County as a whole is around 1 mil isn't it??
It was...45 years ago.
