I came to make the same comment. I was surprised to see that "technically" Jacksonville is nearly 2x larger than Atlanta but digging deeper it just seems about city borders. Jacksonville is pretty large and not that dense. Atlanta is pretty small and fairly dense. When you look at the metropolitan areas Atlanta is nearly 4x larger than Jacksonville metro area and that really just includes the area covered by MARTA so it is all pretty much "Atlanta".
