What does that even mean? You do know that DFW has a higher population, right?

It means that DFW no longer has a higher population that the greater Houston metro area. Have you not been paying attention to the facts as of late??

Of course you haven't heard of it; because you haven't been paying attention. I will NOT do the work for you, YOU need to look up the article for yourself. Bye now.

This is what I found.

The largest metropolitan areas in the U.S. ranked by population:

1. New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ-PA------19,949,502
2. Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim, CA--------13,131,431
3. Chicago-Naperville-Elgin, IL-IN-WI -------------9,537,289
4. Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington, TX-----------------6,810,913
5. Houston-The Woodlands-Sugar Land, TX--- ---6,313,158

Sooo, you're wrong.

No, you are wrong. Those stats that you list are over 2 years old. The greater Houston area is larger than DFW. Try again.

Love it. And HTown is going to surpass Chicago soon, if it hasn't already. LOL

That's what the homers say.

The data was updated in March 2014.

There's no way the Houston MSA has grown 497,755 people in one year.

Who cares about some 497k difference in population when both metros are well over 6 million? What does this prove? Calcutta is over twice as big as both, but it's still probably the world's biggest $hithole. Population means very little when 2 metros are this close in size.

Now... can we get back to the boi vs. tallest exchange? My popcorn is getting stale.

That is all. Carry on.
