Wyoming is #50 in population, but 10% of the state lives in Cheyenne and another 10% lives in Casper. Vermont is #49, but the population is spread out well. Alaska is #48 with about half of the population living in Anchorage.
MrShortWhiteGuy At least 300,000 Alaskans out of the the other 400,000 Alaskans live in Anchorage. Not too spread out. Thats most of Alaska's population
That's right, Burlington, the smallest city on here, has a metropolitan area of 150,000 - 200,000 people. It isn't very big, but the population (at minimum) triples when including the metropolitan area.
He did the same with Cheyenne. Put up a pic of Salt Lake. Not sure how you’d mix those two up. Cheyenne could be a suburb of SLC. Salt Lake’s top 5 suburbs each have more pop than Cheyenne. Not even in the same universe to compare. 🙈
The people of Cheyenne, Wyoming will be interested to know they have mountains in the background (the image looks like Salt Lake City) and the people of Witchita will be surprised by all the tall buildings (the image looks like Kansas City, MO).
Detroit is hardly unique. Most of the rustbelt cities used to have populations that were similar or close in number. When industries change so do population patterns.
@Patriotis 90% of American cities peaked in population during the 1950s. It was the white flight of the 60s and 70s that virtually shrunk every major city in the U.S. Philly is actually doing well relative to its "peers." Cleveland for example used to have a population of almost 1 million people. Today it has just under 400k. Now THAT's a dying city!
CzarJuliusIII Washington declined too. Washington use to be the 9th biggest US city peaking at 802,000 people but now its only 20th behind Denver. But it is bigger than Baltimore which is 30th now
Big Memes Love Me No its not. Its population is increasing. Btw we here in the West don't want people from the East because you ruined our cities. My city Denver has lost so much thanks to you fuckers
Typical youtube idiocy. Anybody can make some shit up and upload it for the whole world to see. And people wonder why the human race is getting dumber by the minute.
It definitely can get bigger, it is neither very dense, nor spread out, five miles outside of Burlington is countryside, but to be fair, most Vermonters don't want it any bigger.
Yeah, but it’s a *REALLY* nice and beautiful little city. Bigger doesn’t always mean better. Just look at Mumbai or Jakarta - both bigger than New York City, and total shitholes.
I believe Phoenix is amalgamated so the city proper is equal to a larger metro area for other cities...(i.e. Seattle is low on the list but really the working population is like 3.5 million - its jist that its made up of many cities) like metro Miami or Tampa are definitely larger than Jacksonville
Cause Jacksonville is one giant suburb. If we were doing it by biggest metro area, Miami would be the biggest and the jump would not have been very big.
@@owenharkins3773 Nope. No mountains. Closest hills are Veedavoo 40 minutes away, and Curt Gowdy park 30 minutes away. Closest mountains are Snowy Range, or the Colorado Rocky Mountains.....about 90 minutes away each.
You should make one accounting for each city's metro population. This video represents Birmingham, Alabama as 34th in terms of population and Des Moines, Iowa as 33rd, but Birmingham's metro area population is 1,152,000 while Des Moines' is 700,000. This is an example of how the ranking isn't really accurate unless looking at only the population of each city proper
Those buildings are not in Wichita, KS. I believe that is the KCMO skyline. The tallest building in Wichita is the Epic Center which is almost 400 feet tall. However, there is a plan to build a 40+ story building that is likely going to be 550-600 feet tall. In addition they plan on building an observation ferris wheel that is going to be at least 550 feet tall.
Many cities are beautiful ! Especially Charleston(West Virginia), Boise (idaho), Denver (Colorado), Seattle (Washinton) with a skyline ending in the mountins. I wonder if that big mountin we see in Seattle and Portland is both times the same one, because Oregon and Washington state are close to eachother.
Living in Wichita KS I can definitely say that that is NOT our skyline. I honestly need to check the numbers too because I find it hard to believe we’re higher up than Salt Lake, New Orleans, and some others.
It may just be that the numbers are out of date. I know for a fact the cities like Minneapolis, Portland, Denver, Seattle, and Charlotte have higher populations than what was shown in this video.
I live in utah but even though salt lake has around 200,000 people the valley it is in has like 1.5 million salt lake is only a small portion of the valley in terms of population
Dang, I never realized okc was that big in comparison. I always thought it was probably on the smaller side of big cities. Then again downtown is pretty small so that’s probably why it seems so small.
@@softpretzelsoup8690 Boise is a pretty fun city with weird people and Fargo is cold in the winter (it snowed in June a couple of times) and they have really kind people
@@Vat19Nvjds Those aren’t really obscure. Boise is known by most people who have passed fourth grade because it’s the capital of Idaho. Fargo is well known because of the movie and tv show. And Portland is pretty well known as Maine’s largest city
Little off on Population sizes, for example Anchorage Alaska in 2016 had a population of about 298,000 and the population has been trending a little upward since then, so probably around 300,000 people by the time this vid was made, Anyways still a great video
Cleveland Ohio was once the largest city in Ohio in 1950 with a population of 914,000.Columbus that year had only 384,000.Now Columbus has passed Cleveland years ago.Columbus now has about 892,000 while Cleveland has nosed dived to only 385,000.
Jacksonville. Columbus and Indianapolis all in a row. Awe...how cute. Congrats on your little towns being the size of your entire COUNTY. Love.. Miami, Tampa and Cleveland
With some of the megaopolii it is hard to say where the actual political boundaries are that circumscribe the population of any certain city, e.g. it seems as though there is one continuous urban area once one crosses into the Salt Lake basin area coming from Idaho to the north until well past the southern end of Salt Lake City.
Note: Keep in mind that Jacksonville is basically the size of a small state. If it wasn't so huge and spread out the population wouldn't be anywhere near 800k. Like Phoenix, Jacksonville is basically a ginormous suburb.
Not 100% sure but you do the video. Add generic techno. The overall video is well edited. 220k views. This is how you win at youtube. Well done sir. You got my like.
You used a picture of the Las Vegas strip in Paradise Nevada when the population figure you used was for the City of Las Vegas proper, which is further north
6:00 Jacksonville looks a bit different now, but looks mostly the same. Honestly, we have a large population due to all of the area we have. We don't really build tall buildings like that much.
Hello, Geo Facts. I just wanted to let you know that when you showed Cheyenne, Wyoming's population, it show the skyline of Salt Lake City, Utah instead of Cheyenne.Thank you for the video and I hope this subjection will help you. Thank you and God bless you!
@@Brewzerr Only 2 of those cities are actually decent though. Maybe 3 if you include Mexico City. The others are fucking slums from top 2 bottom. Going to India was a mistake. It fucking stinks everywhere. I loved the food and people though.
Should do one on metro area, city population is pretty deceptive. Have a hard time believing there's less thank 500k in Atlanta and less than 400k in Minneapolis
I'm from there originally. Besides having the smallest city on this list, it also has the smallest State Capital: I now live in the state with the largest state capital: Phoenix, Arizona.
Nashville recently passed up Memphis for the #1 rank in TN because it includes Davidson County. Shelby county, which includes Memphis and several smaller cities, is still the largest.
