    Default How Big is Your Hometown?

    Just curious, really. Think of this as kind of a census.

    EDIT:

    Speaking of census...

    This oughta be of some help for those Americans who don't know off-hand. It'll give ya a good guesstimate.

    Yeah but, we're not TOO huge, we're not hicksville small, AND we have a <i>great</i> mall xD That's all a town needs, really.

    Fort Worth has about 550,000 people, making it the 26th largest city in the US, by my count.

    Yams, I thought the actual city of Los Angeles only had like... 2,000,000 people.

    Not that it matters in this poll, just sayin'.

    Yeah, I cheated. I included all of Los Angeles County. The City of Los Angeles has about three and a half million people in it.

    I want somebody who lives in Mexico City to blow us all away, though.

    Oh, yes, that reminds me.

    We're talkin' about the actual city you live in, born and raised in, whatever you qualify as your hometown. No metro areas or anything like that.

    80 grand. A very nice size.

    EDIT: Apparently at some point it grew to an even hundred. You can hardly notice.

    50,000. I think my town has tried 3 times for cityhood and failed. Not that I mind. I like how tiny this place is, it beats the chaos of Los Angeles.
