This article is talking about city limits. New York City (city limits) has added 1 Miami (city limits). New York City also has a metro area that is much larger in population than the city itself, so what are you so mad about?
- refurb 5y agoHe’s mad because nobody thinks of city limits. Toronto became the greater Toronto area and now it’s 6M people but the population didn’t change, just the imaginary lines around it.
- Kye 5y agoIt's comparing two completely different kinds of population centers. Places like Miami were built up after WW2, so populations that might live in a grid in NYC live within 30-50 minutes by car and make the trip regularly, often daily. They're not "in the city," but they're in the city.

- Kye 5y agoThe people who run the city also live outside the city limits.
- chrismcb 5y agoWhen most people think of NYC they think of Manhattan or the five boroughs, not the greatest metro area. But if you say the city of Miami you general mean the metro area. So it is just missing is all.
