It’s kinda damn cool no matter what! 😎
I’m not entirely sure. In my state (one of the ones shown as “city”), Wikipedia has 942 cities/towns listed and of those only 25 have “city” in their names.
I’m tempted to keep going to see how many Lake, Mount(ain), 'ville, 'burg, etc there are.
If despite the plethora of other words, City was the “mode”, then that would make sense. Or it could be adjusted for population, or otherwise biased towards whatever the definition of a “city” is to specifically exclude towns and the like?
In any case it’s kind of a neat graph to think about:-).
Minnesota checks out.
NM:
Eldorado at Santa Fe
Santa Ana Pueblo
Santa Clara village
Santa Clara Pueblo
Santa Cruz
Santa Fe
Santa Rosa
Santa Teresa
Santo Domingo Pueblo (do we count this one? It is a matter of gender)
Many states insisting on things that they are not really about.
New Jersey: parks, Midwest: cities
According to https://www.infographicsarchive.com/united-states-ranked-by-national-and-state-parks/ NJ has the 5th highest percentage of the state covered in national and state parks: 7.28%
Surprised to see Texas isn’t Spanish.
Probably the names are too diverse? Dallas, Houston, Alamo, but they do have some like San Antonio.
