      Kelloggs Frosted Flakes - I thought it was Houston-Sugarland-The Woodlands, not Baytown? Baytown is something like the 6th or 7th biggest city in the Greater Houston MSA. Pasadena, Pearland, and League City are all bigger than Baytown.

    To be fair though, as an LA native, you could definitely combine the Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario metro into the LA metro. Same with Oxnard-Ventura-Thousand Oaks. LA has become so big that those two are considered to be in the greater area as well.
    Doing that really brings the LA metro population up to about 17,000,000

    • @Brewzerr
      @Brewzerr 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      You’re correct in that those areas (Riverside-San Bernardino, Oxnard-Ventura-Thousand Oaks) are legitimately connected to Greater L.A., but I think the reason they’re counted separately is because of commuter patterns. I remember someone I knew who worked for the Los Angeles chamber of commerce explaining this to me. Apparently a greater majority of residents who live in those two metro areas also work in those areas than the ones who commute to Greater L.A., and that’s why the census bureau doesn’t recognize them as part of Greater L.A. It’s such an enormous area of land - something like 120 miles in any direction from downtown L.A., so that’s going to affect commuter patterns.
      Still, yes. It’s all connected and the development is unbroken... all the way from the Pacific Ocean to the Coachella Valley going West to East, and all the way from Castaic Lake to Camp Pendleton Marine Base going North to South. Hell, if Pendleton wasn’t there it would be unbroken all the way to Tijuana.

    Atlanta metro covers more than just Sandy Springs and Marietta. I am pretty sure the population is more than that. With rising population comes worsening traffic. I hope it won't drive the cost of living up because it is affordable to live here while you still get the modern perks of living in a big metropolis. Unfortunately, property taxes are also going up.

    • @Brewzerr
      @Brewzerr 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      DFW is now counted as a single MSA, but as recently as the 1990 census it was a CSA. Dallas and Fort Worth were two separate metro areas up until then. The Metroplex is still divided into two separate metropolitan divisions, and for all intents and purposes the Metroplex still feels like two different metro areas. I think maybe for this reason Greater Houston feels like a bigger metro.

    I grew up in a MD suburb that's in the Washington Metropolitan Area. But I've seen that a lot of the metro areas in the U.S. are huge and can be thousands of sq miles in size, especially in the southern states. If we were to link up with Baltimore (which is only 40 miles north of downtown DC) to become ONE metro area, our population would be at least 8 million strong and WE STILL wouldn't be as big in area as some of the METRO's on this list.

    • @Brewzerr
      @Brewzerr 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      True. I’ve never understood how Dallas and Fort Worth can be considered a single metro area, but DC and Baltimore aren’t. Same goes for San Francisco and San Jose (versus DFW). Makes no damn sense at all.

    How big are these metro areas? They include Western Wisconsin in the Twin Cities metro, even though both Minneapolis and St. Paul are pretty far from the border, yet they don't just group together Baltimore, Dover, and Philadelphia which are roughly the same distance.

    Dallas & Fort Worth = less than 40 miles from each other, have overlapping labor markets; single metro area.

  • @Brewzerr
    @Brewzerr 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    One thing I don’t understand is why the Dallas-Ft. Worth Metroplex is recognized by the U.S. Census Bureau as an MSA, while other larger “twin hub” metro areas like Baltimore-Washington DC and San Francisco-San Jose are not. I mean, it’s the same situation - two separate metro areas that have grown together to form one solid mass of development. Symbiotic economies centered upon two different hub cities. There is literally no rural separation between these cities, yet only one out of three is considered it’s own metro area? That just doesn’t make much sense.

    • @Brewzerr
      @Brewzerr 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      I also forgot to mention that if DC/Baltimore and SF/SJ were recognized as metros, they would both be bigger than DFW.

    what confuses a lot of people is the difference between cities and metropolitan areas. in reality there is no way to define which city is the most populated because there are so many ways to do it. lets use Chicago for an example, in the central city or (city proper) of Chicago there are 2.7 million residents. however you also have the suburbs of Chicago. Aurora, Gary, and so on. this is the metropolitan area. A city and its suburbs. When Chicago's suburbs are taken into account, the Central city of Chicago and its surrounding suburbs have almost 9.5 million people.

      Drew Estepp That's true. This is especially frustrating when comparing cities such as Chicago and Houston. While in city proper, Houston might seem larger than Chicago, Houston having 2.303 million residents and a city size of 627 square miles, and Chicago having 2.7 million residents and a city size of 234 square miles, in actuality in metro size, Houston only has 5.628 million residents (2008) and a metro area of 1,660 square miles, while Chicago has 9.5 million residents and a metro area of 10,857. Great, half of people believe Houston is larger, while the other know Chicago is larger!

      Luca Perez The video is not updated over the past years Boston gained a lot more people and today the Metro is 6th behind DC, New York, San Francisco, Los Angeles and Chicago. The population now is almost 700,000 with its cultural and nice people. Boston is a HUGE port for the USA.

      Salt Lake City, really? I think you guys did such a good job with your Olympics just 5 months after 9/11. Nobody could have prepared for that. I also like the Sundance Film Festival. It's just a matter of getting bigger in population and attracting more people who aren't Mormons.

      Coaster World I know how you feel, Chicago is the third largest metro in the US, and by far the most beautiful big metro, but when people mention US cities, most of the time Chicago's never mentioned. If it's bad enough for the third largest metro, I just can't imagine how bad it's for you bud.

    • @Brewzerr
      @Brewzerr 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Matthew Majors - On the U.S. side, yes. However, once you add Juarez, Mexico to the equation, it’s more like 2.3 million. Yes, I know we don’t include foreign cities in the census, but literally the only thing that separates Juarez from El Paso is a thin strip of water. Both cities’ downtowns face each other from opposite sides of the border, and many people commute back and forth for work from both cities and do their shopping on either side. For all intents and purposes, they basically are part of the same metro area.

      That's when it's combined metropolitan area or CSA, for example Raleigh is considered one metropolitan area with 1.2 million while Durham is considered another with 535K but when combined the Raleigh/Durham metropolitan area have a population of a little more than 2 million people.
