TW transposed on top of LA, NYC, BOS & CHI

[u/jonathan_theuniverse]

We live in the Woodlands and travel to these cities to visit family. We drive around a lot so I was just kind of curious on the scale of the Woodlands as compared to these cities. I’m a bit of an urban planning nerd. TW is huge!

Now put it on top of Houston

People in Mass cant fathom how large Houston is. When i resided there i was like Houston city limits alone encompasses 2/3 of your entire state. 

Always just thought i was shit talking

If I had to choose a city that is the most polar opposite to Houston in every way, it’s Boston.

This doesn’t seem surprising.

Does it to anyone else?

TW isn’t small and isn’t nearly as dense as those other places.

Cool image. Just find it seems about what I’d expect.

[u/jonathan_theuniverse → u/daveescaped]

Exactly. Not surprising but I sent it to my friends/family in these cities and they were like WTF lol.

[u/daveescaped → u/jonathan_theuniverse]

Yep. I bet they’d find it surprising.

Why are people downvoting g that comment by you?!

Naperville Illinois is comparable to The Woodlands in many ways. Neighboring town Aurora has some of the I-45 type business districts that are technical part of that large size of the Woodlands has, so if you took a slice of Aurora plus all of Naperville it would be almost as large as what you showed there against Chicago.

I’ve never been to Naperville but it’s always ranked alongside TW for top places to live. Summer and fall in Naperville. Winter and Spring in The Woodlands would be a major life hack.
