San Francisco? Los Angeles, Chicago, Dallas, Atlanta, Miami, Philadelphia and Boston would all like a word. Los Angeles and Chicago in particular.

Population-wise some of those are too low compared to Chinese T1 cities. But there's no official definition so...

Yeah I wouldn’t expect any of those except maybe LA to be considered tier 1, I said those ones because they’re all larger than San Francisco lol

San Francisco has a healthy and vibrant metro surrounding it though. There's Oakland to the East and the entirety of Silicon Valley to the South (including San Jose).

Even including that it doesn’t break 8 million people

Boston isn't even close to tier 1.

[–] ClimateChangeAnxiety@hexbear.net 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I agree but it’s closer than San Fransisco

In terms of population or infrastructure?

Chicago in particular.
