Delaware only has 3 counties so all of them make the top 3.

Its interesting to see when the most populous counties are grouped together or separated by large distances.

Interesting content! One minor nitpick which is very peculiar to NYC, so I understand not catching it: 1st: Kings County (= Brooklyn Borough); 2nd: Queens County (= Queens Borough); 3rd: New York County (= Manhattan borough). So NYC is divided into both 5 counties (as listed by the state) and 5 boroughs (which are NY City designations). These generally match up with each other

Thank you! Yeah it can be tricky with different states. Virginia has some counties but they also have independent cities too. Alaska also has counties and boroughs and of course Louisiana calls them parishes.

An important point is that Baltimore County, Md. does not include the city of Baltimore. Likewise, St. Louis County, Mo. does not include the city of St. Louis. And most of Virginia’s larger cities are not within any county. Those arrangements can skew these numbers.

The county is 4,058 sq miles. It’s like almost 4 times bigger than Rhode Island. Most counties in the west half of the US are larger in size. It’s not that dense either. Far less dense than the counties in other metro areas. only average of 2,464 people per square miles.
