Well, to be fair, Utah is not exactly a high population state. LA, New York, Miami, Houston, Dallas are more along the lines of what you might see in China.

Granted, some of the bigger cities in China have footprints bigger than even our biggest cities, but they do have a lot more people than us.

Comparing SLC to Beijing is, well, more than a bit unfair of a comparison.

I understand that. I was trying to think of a small city. But a train going 300mph would blow through Manhattan pretty quick.

I lived in NYC for 10 years. Went on a business trip to Sao Paulo Brazil. That city is 5 times larger than NYC. Couldn't believe how big it was. Beijing is way bigger than Sao Paulo.
