A few brain lapses in the video: 1- Pennsylvania has 12.9 MILLION people 2- The population density of Wyoming is 6 people per square mile, not 6,000! 3- The aerial image I showed for Mesa, AZ is actually Tempe, AZ (adjacent suburb) 4- Yukon-Koyukuk Census Area, AK at 147,000 square miles is roughly the same size as Montana, but not Bangladesh. Bangladesh is 147,000 square km. 5. The image showed for Falls Church, VA is of Charlottesville. I love how there are so many errors in a video about facts that I have to pin a comment with corrections
I had read that Bangladesh is the size of Wisconsin, so I figured that needed correcting. Mesa, Az. is now the size Phoenix was in the 1970 census. All of Maricopa County had 800,000 in the ‘70 census. Now, what, about 5 million? Of course snow birds make up a fair amount of that.
Small nitpick. The Salton Sea wasn't created because they were trying to pump water to LA. The irrigation system was solely to send water to the Imperial Valley. Because of the abnormally high rainfall in the upper Colorado River, the river breached levees near the border of AZ and CA and flowed unobstructed into the Salton Sink, creating the Salton Sea. Glad you mentioned this area though! It's often forgotten. I'd love to see a video on it. Keep up the great work :)
@ I mean it's not a very important mistake. It doesn't change the facts of the video. In terms of relevance to the video it really isn't a big deal. So I'd say it's a nitpick
Hey an interesting idea for a video that you will enjoy! Fast food/supermarket/gas station chains by state/region Like how Kwik Trips dominate Wisconsin
I can tell you exactly what the problem is with Loving County, Texas. That county only supports enough of a permanent population to support the oilfield workers. Mentone only has a fuel station, some water facilities, and a couple restaurants that I’m pretty sure are just permanently parked food trucks and not actual buildings. It’s in a high desert. That route, Texas 302, is taken primarily by people traveling between Orla (another oil town in Reeves County with several “man camps” around it), Kermit (a town of about 10,000 in Winkler County that serves as a jump off point for oil workers) and the Midland/Odessa metro area. The biggest reason for Loving County to lose a third of its population seemingly overnight is because oil production has gone down in the area and those “permanent” residents went to another town. They’ll all be back in a couple years when a few new wells get drilled.
Love your content, I’ve been watching for years. Just wanted to add that the Florida state capital is also a high rise at 345 feet tall. Thank you for always making such great videos :)
Thank you for the Mesa shout out - the 36th most populous city in the US and the #1 "suburb." However, the picture is of ASU in Tempe, about 5 miles west of Mesa.
You killed it, Your Majesty! I am a total trivia nerd (I even know where the word "trivia" was derived!) I love these kind of vids. As someone who has lived most of his life in the city, county, and state of New York (I think New York may be the only city that shares its name with the County and the State in which it is located...), Loving County, Texas has long been a source of fascination to me. I was shocked to learn of its population decline. Hell, more people live on the floor of my building than live in Loving Cty! I, along with the 69,000 people who share the sq. mile I live in here, just cannot imagine what it would be like to have that much space to ourselves!
I've watched every video on this channel and this was one of my favorites! Superb mix of "easy" trivia to make us feel smart along with more obscure but interesting trivia so we learn something new. Great video!
Great video! Love this kind of stuff. I’m curious if you have ever thought about doing a street video highlighting the longest, widest, shortest, weirdest, most unusual, etc, in America. Might be interesting. 👍🏽
The tallest mountain in the lower 48 from base to peak is Rainier. All those "towering" 14ers in Colorado begin at 6,000 ft making them all much less impressive than the volcanoes in the Pacific Northwest (and Shasta). Not to mention what they call forests we call scrub brush. Compared to Rainier (13,246 ft from base to summit). Elbert and Pike's Peak are foothills.
Ballarat California is a super interesting spot. It only has one dude who lives in it, spotted him tearing down old buildings when I visited. Have a couple old vehicles sitting out front on the “main street,” one of them belonging to Charles Manson, who is ranch was about 20 miles south. The general store is just grab what you want and put money in a jar. There’s also a piano and checkerboard in front of the store- if you guys see a Civil War replica Calvary hat, that’s mine.
Bombay Beach is unincorporated. The lowest incorporated municipality in the US is nearby Calipatria, negative 180 feet. It's flagpole is 184 feet tall so that the flag flies above sea level. The other incorporated municipalities in Imperial County are also below sea level (El Centro, Brawley, etc) The eastern Salton Sea is also home to the Salton Buttes, the only active volcano in southern California. Red Island is a hundred foot tall hill whose summit elevation is -127 feet.
Loved this video, Kyle. Actually i almost always love your content but I most appreciate geography as it influences population and stats. This compilation was fantastic! Thanks for putting it together!!
Love this channel. Always learn something new. I've lived abroad for nearly 20 years and my 13-year-old daughter has visited 43 US states in three separate visits (totaling just 96 days). It took me 51 years to get all 50 states.
Fun facts: Originally located within a Spanish Province, the city of Santa Fe, NM was founded by the 2nd governor of the province, Don Pedro de Peralta, in 1607. He named it _La Villa Real de la Santa Fé de San Francisco de Asís_ which means "the Royal Town of the Holy Faith of Saint Francis of Assisi". In 1610, he designated the city as the capital of the province making it the oldest state capital in the United States. The city was later nicknamed _Santa Fe_ which means "Holy Faith".
Great info, Kyle! One state capital (or Capitol) fact I have found that maybe no one else has ever cared about is: The only State Capitol building visible from another state is… give it some thought….. … New Jersey’s. It’s in Trenton and can be seen across the river in Pennsylvania.
This is great Kyle! I just figured I'd point out that at 11:13 you list ME, MA, CT, and RI as the options for size comparisons with the big island of Hawaii but the map highlights New Hampshire, not Massachusetts. Also quick question is there going to be another installment of the Fan Submitted interesting maps series and if so by when should I submit that? I've been working on some neat maps for my job as a GIS Tech...
Yeah bit of a brain lapse there. I'll have the next interesting maps video up at the beginning of the new year. If you would like to submit a map, you can send it to my contact link on my channel homepage in the channel description.
12.9 people in PA?? There's 9 in my house alone haha i knew what you meant. Love your videos and I really love "est" type videos! Looking for the next!
I lived in Queens for a few years and I can confirm that people who live in Queens or Brooklyn most definitely do not not consider themselves living on Long Island, which is Nassau and Suffolk Counties only. But, as you said, geographically the island of Long Island is comprised of Nassau, Suffolk, Queens and Kings counties.
If you superimposed Alaska on the contiguous US, it would stretch from coast to coast. Jacksonville, FL became the largest city in the contiguous US when it incorporated with Duval county.
9:29 quarantine is for suspected of infection. Isolation is for individuals known to be infected. It’s pretty common for people to get those words mixed up. However, It’s important to keep them correct , since they represent very different levels of danger.
@5:33 Native New Yorker here. If you say you live on Long Island most people think Nassau or Suffolk counties, not the physical Island itself. So yeah no one from Queens or Brooklyn says they live on Long Island.
I think people really underestimate how big NYC is because of the hudson river divide with Jersey. Yes NJ is a seperate state all that, but certainly most of North Jersey along the Hudson feels very much just another part of NYC in density and culture. But in Jersey we are absolutely nuts with how we call municipalities or cities (look at South Hackensack, or North Bergen being south of Bergen County). So by comparison, Jersey City is about the same population as Pittsburgh, its in Hudson County which has a population the size of Seattle just on the hill next to NYC. And if you copied NYC's model of just combining the counties around the central hub into one city, you'd be looking at a city the size of Chicago. So how ever big NYC is, its hard to fathom that a city the size of Chicago rests next door on its western border as well.
Geography is under "learned", and under appreciated. I have always loved geography and maps, ever since I was a little kid. I still carry a paper State Atlas in my 2006 4Runner, which is useful, even today with GPS apps. My Waze tried to take me through a "short cut" to save a few miles, that was a curvy, mountainous, road from Hell in New Mexico. I didn't bite, and trusted the map.
Very nice. Thank you. (First, you eliminated your cool intro sound...dang. Second, I see you are a BOC enthusiast, my favorite album of theirs is OYFOOYK, featuring Buck's Boogie...)
Kyle, if you overlay Alaska with the southernmost panhandle near Jacksonville, FL, and Attu Island on the west coast, it shows even more clearly how huge it is. 6000 people per sq. mi. in WY? I just checked--6 people per sq. mi. Oops!
Oh man, a Blue Oyster Cult symbol on the wall. I was a huge fan in the 70's and saw them in concert 3 times. BTW the picture for Mesa is actually Tempe.
So Leadville, CO has always claimed to be the highest incorporated city in the US but Alma is the highest incorporated town? Is this just them playing games or is there some actual difference in these two terms?
I’ll be prepared to hear the rainiest city in the contiguous US: my hometown of Mobile, AL. Many people would think a PNW city would get the most annual rainfall, and while they do have more days that it rains, Mobile gets more inches of rain per year than other city in the contiguous US
I was just stating the "official" height (usually at the courthouse or city hall). They might have listed the highest elevation in the city on the sign.
This is a very interesting video. St. Augustine Florida being settled 73 years after the Americas were discovered for Europe reminds me of reading 'The Life and Voyages of Christopher Columbus', by Washington Irving. Most Astounding.
My favorite local CA stat is the lowest and highest points in the lower 48 States are actually so close together they are visible from one another ( Mt Whitney and Death Valley.) in the same county maybe?
A few brain lapses in the video:
1- Pennsylvania has 12.9 MILLION people
2- The population density of Wyoming is 6 people per square mile, not 6,000!
3- The aerial image I showed for Mesa, AZ is actually Tempe, AZ (adjacent suburb)
4- Yukon-Koyukuk Census Area, AK at 147,000 square miles is roughly the same size as Montana, but not Bangladesh. Bangladesh is 147,000 square km.
5. The image showed for Falls Church, VA is of Charlottesville.

Mammoth Lakes, California, is at 7,920 feet, and it's incorporated, so California is also included with Colorado, Utah, and New Mexico.
I was going to say, I didn't know that most people I know weren't part of Pennsylvania, except 11 people and an amputee.
One other small correction: Yukon-Koyukuk is a census area, not a borough
As a UVA alum, I thought I recognized the Charlottesville downtown mall! Initially my reaction was “oh neat, Falls Church looks just like Cville.”
Loved the Lon Gisland note...nicely done, Kyle.
I’ve never heard the word Primate used to mean anything other than a monkey or ape. Cool to learn a new word!

This was a fun segment!
Still blows my mind Phoenix has gotten so big. I'm glad Tucson hasn't quite followed so closely in those footsteps.
Not only hasn't it followed, but Mesa will become the second largest city in the state in not too long.
@@wilycoyote1924 does mesa have a lot more room to grow? Looks like nearly 100% built up except the SE corner and it's pretty much land locked.
Certain people want sun and warmth and not everyone cares about living in a desert climate. Not a surprise to me.
Yes but you lost your race track same as California's doing.
Can’t fathom why so many people would want to live in Phoenix

I’m curious if you have ever thought about doing a street video highlighting the longest, widest, shortest, weirdest, most unusual, etc, in America. Might be interesting. 👍🏽
And include Woodward Avenue in Detroit. It held the most street drag races in the 1960s and 70s.
Great video! I really enjoy how you point out new and interesting ways to look at our country!
Kyle throwing sign was worth the whole video! Thanks, Man !
Great 14 minutes of today.

@2:10 Kyle - Florida has a high rise capitol as well. It’s 25 story building.
It's frankly confusing because the old capitol building is adjacent to the high rise, but the old building is basically just a museum now.

I think your math on Wyoming is wrong, it should be only 6 people per square miles. 6000 people per square miles is more dense than New Jersey!
Also 12.9 people in Pennsylvania instead of 12.9 million, that did make me chuckle though haha
Dog piling with ‘Lon Gisland, NY’.
I think Wyoming has 6 miles per square person, or something like that?
Hey he's a geographic nerd, not a demographic nerd lmao

More stats videos like this. Dig it.
11:05 is inaccurate. Wyoming has ~ six people per square mile, not 6,000.
That's what caught my eye too.
Yeah, that was a screw up. Thanks for the correction.
If it has 6,000 people per square mile, it would have around 586 million
Kyle, if you overlay Alaska with the southernmost panhandle near Jacksonville, FL, and Attu Island on the west coast, it shows even more clearly how huge it is.
6000 people per sq. mi. in WY? I just checked--6 people per sq. mi. Oops!

Shoutout from Erie, PA!
So Leadville, CO has always claimed to be the highest incorporated city in the US but Alma is the highest incorporated town? Is this just them playing games or is there some actual difference in these two terms?
I’ll be prepared to hear the rainiest city in the contiguous US: my hometown of Mobile, AL. Many people would think a PNW city would get the most annual rainfall, and while they do have more days that it rains, Mobile gets more inches of rain per year than other city in the contiguous US
Houston and NYC also get more rain than Seattle. We just have more cloudy days, and more days with measurable rain. They get theirs in big storms.
Alma's sign appears to have an image of Mt. Shuksan in Washington. (8.44)
Pictures of Mt. Shuksan turn up in a lot of strange places. 😁
Great catch...it sure is.
So the elevation you mentioned for Alma is lower than what it says on their sign?
I was just stating the "official" height (usually at the courthouse or city hall). They might have listed the highest elevation in the city on the sign.
There is a marker on the steps of the state capitol building in Denver showing the exact elevation of 5280 feet.
Fun and interesting.

So Sta Fe has the shortest/highest capital building?
Top of the building is certainly higher than any other capitol building, by 1000ft.

Yes. Barely. (Inyo Co.)
