If you consider the relatively low density, mostly restrictively zoned Bay Area to be "packed in", I'd hate to hear what you think of e.g. New York.

- khazhoux 4y agoNew York has much higher density, but I’m not sure how that’s relevant or interesting.
- edgyquant 4y agoAs posted above the Bay Area is second in density only to NYC.
- jacob171714 4y agoThey said sf which is strictly different than the bay area as it only has about 1/10th the total population and a significantly smaller fraction of the land. If you want to go from the silicon valley to sf its 45-50 miles.
- kaashif 4y agoNot correct, that post was about San Francisco only. The Bay Area is much, much larger, and has a density of ~1000 per sq mi. If the entire Bay Area were as dense as SF (not even close), that would be a megacity dwarfing NYC and Tokyo several times over.
