Äquivalent der Bevölkerung von NYC im ländlichen Nordwesten

I’m more surprised 8 million people live up there

I like this representation. It is useful to remember this when we see maps which display data by *county* on a national map.

NYC is made up of five counties which coincide with the five boroughs. The most populous is Brooklyn (AKA: Kings County) which has a population of about 2.5 million. Yet Brooklyn barely shows up on maps which display data on a county by county level.

Loving County, TX (676.7 mi²) is large enough to show up on such maps. But how many people looking at such maps casually understand that it has a total population of 64?
