Seeing videos of this kind made me realize very recently how the Sun Belt is only a 40yo story and how much American industrialization is almost exclusively a north-eastern and midwestern phenomenon.
Love how LA just showed up like “excuse y’all” and climbed all the way to second haha, then in the 80s Miami did the same thing out of nowhere seems like all that coke money rlly did build that skyline after all lfmao.
yup Miami's economy would be a lot different without coke haha
Gotta thank atlanta for inventing that coke man
@@thatguy.333I think he meant diff type of coke lol
It is kinda depressing to see how many Midwestern cities just shrank starting in the 60s.
Seriously, it’s astonishing that everyone else grew and most of these cities shrank :(
rust belt baby
Urban sprawl, they moved so far away from the core that they're no longer considered part of the metro region anymore
It’s not that they didn’t grow its just that the southern big cities like Miami Atlanta Dallas and Houston (and LA of course) have exploded because of air conditioning and other things but yes it is the rust belt.
But the Midwest will have a resurgence soon.
The Midwest has a lot of good institutions universities and unlimited water. As high end manufacturing moves back to US from China as we decouple we need to move these manufacturing jobs that are crucial to our country back to ALL our big cites.
Not Indianapolis!!!
DFW is projected to overtake Chicago in the 2030’s to become number 3. Will be interesting.
Wont happen
@@Cruckavens777 what if it does?
@@RootBeerRundown Then JustinLHopkins gets a cookie
Sf Bay Area is easily number 4 or 5 if you include San Jose.
They include San Jose
@@hyzercreek No they don't. The official metro area is San Francisco/Oakland. Santa Clara County (San Jose) is its own metro area. Now if you live in the Bay Area is all "The Bay Area" and they're grouped together. That's 7.75 million.
It kinda seems like Riverside is sort of in the same metro as LA
I don’t understand why they don’t group those SCAL/Greater LA cities together. They are only a 1 hour distance from each other so it makes no sense separating them IMO. If you Google LA metropolitan population the top result says 18.7 million and I’d be willing to bet they all identify themselves as living in LA.
Exactly if the entire area is accounted for it’s the greatest in the country (size wise). I’ve driven through Tucson, Phoenix, Bay Area, San Diego Area, Portland Or, Seattle and a couple of metro areas in Mexico. None of them compare to the LA area. To cross that damn area you need make at least 2hrs without traffic at 2am.
Parts of it are LA. However, if you go deeper into San Bernardino and Riverside County those core cities are their own distinct area. Also it’s a very tough commute to Los Angeles from there.
I always thought the same thing.Which I think to this day San Bernardino is a metro city part of Los Angeles.Its just letting me know how big Los Angeles is.I thought Houston metro population was huge it ain't nothing compared to Los Angeles.
If you put NYC and LA right next to each other, everybody would think LA was a suburb of NY
2014 LA stops gaining on NY and starts moving to the left. NY is growing faster than LA now
Les go a W for da east
Can you do the biggest metro areas by land in the us
I'll try to find some data.
@@punditbot1416
Here is 2020 data for urbanized areas. See schedule three for area. These are built-up areas not metro area (basically how much land the developed area takes up)
www.demographia.com/db-worldua.pdf
Here is 2010 data for urbanized areas (this is total built-up area, not necessarily metropolitan areas)
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_United_States_urban_areas
Here is 2000:
www.demographia.com/db-ua2000pop.htm
On this one you can get 1990:
www.demographia.com/db-ua2000compare.htm
On this one, you can get 1950-2010:
www.demographia.com/db-uza2000.htm
Obviously LA (with Riverside, Oxnard, Simi Valley, and Murrietta)
SF (with San Jose)
Atlanta (with Gainesville, GA)
I'd really like you to do this with built-up area for urban areas of the USA from 1950-2020.
Crazy that Pittsburgh was so large then (1900). It's 26th now
No delaware valley is a large metro area today
New York a track star
marathon
All those Miami vice babies
Heh I live in Atlanta metro and it looks like we’re gonna pass Miami so let’s gooo. Good vid 👍
Yall are Suburban
@@juniorcarmona323 Duh. That's what the metropolitan areas are about. The main city and their suburbs.
@Moon Shine I know. Can't say I'm proud my home will be more populous than other metropolitan areas in the US, but right now traffic is already horrible. Wait till we get more people.
Not really accurate since dc and Baltimore are like Dallas and ft worth..the size of the metro today is 9.6 million
Dallas and Fort Worth metro has a greater social and economic ties between them and are combined as one large metro (MSA). D.C & Baltimore has employment interchange at higher than 15% but doesn't reach the threshold yet to qualify as a single MSA. As of 2020 the US census considered it a CSA of 9.9M.
Baltimore and Washington dc are in the same CSA but in different MSA.
MSA is more accurate then CSA.
The Bay Area is also closer to 8 million when you add the San Jose-Santa Clara-silicon valley area. That’s without taking into account the Sacramento area which is around 45 miles north (2.6million).
There is a specific definition defining the MSA of a city .. so it is accuate.
Los Angeles just skyrockets like crazy.
Please make largest cities in SEA

Jersey City and Newark are in the NYC Metro area
Not back then
Wow I can't imagine Detroit's skyline if it stayed up there
It would still actually be much larger today if it wasn't for the great depression limiting it's growth
It would probably be similar to Chicago or Toronto if it never went into extreme decline.
If people didnt buy all those Japanese cars it would have
Detroits on a comeback! I dunno if it will ever be in the top few again, but it’s up there
Phoenix coming out of nowhere to suddenly rise to the top 10
And it’s only going to keep growing! Phoenix represent 🌵
Becoming SoCal East isn’t exactly something I revel in. But at least I own a home and will let the Cali value rise with the population.
Most of the south only grew after ac became prevalent
As a Phoenix resident i can confirm this is infact a bad thing. Phoenix literally has no reason to be this big aside for snowbirds and the air force base. We are definitely reaching our tipping point soon.
Newark was its own metro area?
Yeah that makes no sense. It should part of NYC
And western CT should be part of NYC also but they call it Bridgeport. Joke?
@@hyzercreek Keep NJ seperate
@@jimini1976 That's ridiculous. Most of NYC suburbs are in Jaisey
Phoenix,Riverside,and Tampa are not very big cities of thier own but thier metropolitan population make them U.S.known because they have so many suburbs that are growing around the city.I always thought Riverside,Ca was a giant suburb of Los Angeles but i guess Riverside is a big city with thier own metro population.
can you make one but it goes all the way to 2100 or 2050 or something
I'm sorry mate, no such data available. I have some videos about the future city populations, if you are interested you can check them. Best regards!
Do you have a time machine
You can’t create data compilations based off non-existent data lol. There’s always projections but they are never going to be accurate.
Its amazing to this day people from Los Angeles will tell you their population is only 4 million....lol
The top 5 remained the same for the span of over 60 years.
NYC,L.A. and Chicago did,the top 3 but not the top 5.
1930 till 1992
Washington, Philadelphia, and Boston should be lumped into New York metro since they are one continuous urban area with New York as the obvious center. While each one of these cities in the NE Corridor have many unique qualities, there is a definite integration to the NE Corridor, especially economically, movement of people, and culturally, that unite it more than any other region of the US. Also, one of the only places in the US where high speed rail could actually turn a profit if anyone could get it going.
What you are referring to is not a metro area, rather it is a megalopolis, a large area covering multiple cities of similar characteristics. A metro area constitutes its urban center, or city proper, with its surrounding territories, while a megalopolis constitutes multiple cities and spans a considerably large area that may include a large portion of rural land.
I disagree, look at dfw, san bernadino/los angelas, or the bay area san fran and san jose. Those places have continuous unbroken urban areas connecting them. There are too many sparse areas on the highways in New Jersey and Connecticut to claim its all one mega city. Its close but theres only a mountain and not a single tree between san bernadino and la.
Then we should consider the entire Bay Area as San Francisco metro. Then it would have 7.5 million people.
When people commute from Boston suburbs to Washington DC everyday for work, sure
Minneapolis fought well
All metropolitan area are defined by a single city. Dallas & Fort Worth are two separate cities. The US Census Bureau does not have the constitutional authority to combine metropolitan areas. Why not have San Jose, Oakland and San Francisco count as a signal metropolitan area? Why not have Why not have Houston metropolitan areas and its immediate 22 counties . Constitutionally the only city that is the largest in the state of Texas is Houston. Why are Dallas and Fort Worth Combined. Why not combine Austin and Houston and San Antonio and make them the largest in Texas. Dallas has its own metropolitan area and Fort Worth has its own, look it up. Dallas has 11 counties and Fort Worth has 11 counties. Houston only has 9 counties. Houston's metropolitan area extends all the way East to Beaumont, North to Huntsville, East to College Town and South to Victoria but conveniently only 9 counties are counted for Houston. Dallas Fort Worth is disqualified not matter what you say. Everyone in the state of Texas and in the Country knows that Dallas is not growing. It went from 2nd largest to 3rd and soon will be passed up by Austin and eventually Fort Worth. The Census Bureau
You sound like a Dallas hater and Houston not that big it’s big but not that big
Cities have to be economically linked to be one metro area. For Example: The vast majority of residents in Tarrant County (Fort Worth) commute into Dallas County for work. Secondly, everything is shared between Dallas and Ft Worth. They share the same media market, airport, etc.
Do you know why other Texas cities are outgrowing Dallas? It is because they continue to expand their city limits. Houston’s city limits is nearly double the size of Dallas’. San Antonio continues to annex Bexar County. That’s why SA is now bigger than Dallas. Even with that said, Dallas County alone STILL has more people than the entire San Antonio metro area. Land area: Houston is 640 sq mi, San Antonio is 500 sq mi, and Dallas is 340 sq mi. Dallas IS growing and all the growth is additional density and infill.
San Jose is part of the Combined Statistical Area along with San Francisco and Oakland. Dallas and Forth Worth border each other. They are twin cities, just like Minneapolis and Saint Paul.
Idk why this guy hates Dallas so much. I meet people every day from other parts of the state who love DFW
You mad lol Dallas just growing bro
Detroit plummeted.... Philly is next on it's way out, city has gone to shit.
Philly will not go away completely as it has a healthy educational foundation, like Boston. Philly may have a similar tech boom to Austin and DC and Boston if they can convert their students to long time residents. They also need to fully let go of their manufacturing/steel background and bring in the next generation of industries (tech/aviation/etc)
