#greenscreen Part 2 to my last video, this time showing the map of every
#county in the
#UnitedStates that has a higher
#population than the state of
#Wyoming. Wyoming is the least-populous
#US #State, and with only 578,472 residents, has a smaller population than 119 US
#counties. 35 states have at least one county with a higher population, and the states with the most are initially unsurprising, as
#California leads the way with 15 counties bigger, ranging from
#LA County (the nation's most-populous county with ~10 Million residents), to the city and county of
#SanFrancisco, which is 2,086x smaller than the state. Runner up
#Texas has 12, with the
#Dallas #ForthWorth metroplex alone having 4, and
#Houston's having 3, and
#Florida comes in at third, with
#Miami alone getting 3.
#NewYork ends up with 9, as
#Buffalo and
#Rochester's counties are quite populated, alongside the
#LongIsland boroughs of
#Nassau and
#Suffolk, and 4 of the city's boroughs.
#Atlanta and
#Chicago carry for their states, each getting 4, but the states with the 5th most counties this large,
#NewJersey and
#Massachusetts, are a reminder that the
#Northeast #Megalopolis remains the main population center of the country. Is YOUR county more populous than Wyoming?
