Since I was a boy, I was fascinated with populations of cities. I started with wondering what the population was in the city I lived, Santa Fe. Then I moved outward to my state, to the largest cities in my state. My journey took me to the largest cities in the USA--New York City, Chicago, Detroit, Los Angeles.
The populations of cities can be really boring on the surface, but once your imagination takes over, you start to wonder what life is like in those cities. You wonder what the architecture is like, the food, the people, the smells. It can really be a great journey. So, in this one I found myself rambling off numbers of populations, but I challenge you to picture yourself in those cities, being just one of those people in that number.
I hope you enjoy!
