San Francisco proper is physically much smaller than New York City, 231 sq. miles vs 468.
In fact, San Francisco measures only 47 square miles. And that's if you round upward.
- DoreenMichele 9y agoThanks. I did a quick Google and was surprised at the figure. Yours makes much more sense. From Wikipedia: City and county 231.89 sq mi (600.59 km2) • Land 46.89 sq mi (121.46 km2) • Water 185.00 sq mi (479.14 km2) So both figures are correct from some perspective, but yours is the more relevant for purposes of talking about building stuff.
