US 5 Mile Expanding Circles Challenge By State – Choose City

First choose any US city by entering it and choosing it in the drop-down box. Then, name the largest US city in each 5 mile circle/ring IN THE SAME STATE as the rings expand outward from your city of choice. The first circle will include your city of choice as a possible answer if it is the largest city in that area.

When you run out of time or end the quiz, you will see the current ring's correct answer at right (under 'Answer Stats' by your coordinates).

For example, if you choose 'Chicago, IL' - you will be shown a circle of radius 5 miles centered at Chicago. Naming the largest Illinois city in this circle (Chicago in this case) will cause another 'ring' of radius 5 miles to appear outside that circle. You now need to name the largest US city also in Illinois in that ring (but not within any previous circles/rings). If an Illinois city is not within the next ring of that distance, the ring will keep expanding by that distance until a IL city falls within it. So if a city doesn't fall within 5-10 miles, it will expand to be a 5-15 mile ring, then 5-20 mile and so on until a qualifying city is found within the ring.

US 5 Mile Expanding Circles Largest City Challenge By State – Choose City

First choose any US city by entering it and choosing it in the drop-down box. Then, name any US city in each 5 mile circle/ring IN THE SAME STATE as your chosen city as the rings expand outward from your city of choice, trying to name LARGEST city. The first circle will include your city of choice as a possible answer.

PLEASE NOTE - You must type a '.' (period) after each city to submit it to prevent answering another city with a name you would be have to type to get your answer - for example 'Jackson' would be answered trying to type 'Jacksonville.' If multiple cities have the name you submitted, only the largest one will be counted.

You accumulate points based on the population of the city you named in relation to the largest city in the circle. Naming the largest city will get you 100 points. A smaller city’s point total will be the ratio of its population to the largest, so if you name a city of 75K people and the largest city has 100K, you get 75 points.

When you run out of time or end the quiz, you will see the current ring’s largest correct answer at right (under ‘Answer Stats’ by your coordinates).

For example, if you choose ‘Chicago’ – you will be shown a circle of radius 25 miles centered at Chicago. Naming any IL city in this circle (including Chicago) will cause another ‘ring’ of radius 5 miles to appear outside that circle, however - you will want to try naming the LARGEST city you can to get more points (Chicago will be 100 points). After completing that circle, you now need to name any IL city in the new ring (but not within any previous circles/rings), again trying to name as large a city as possible. If a city is not within the next ring of that distance, the ring will keep expanding by that distance until a city falls within it. So if a city doesn’t fall within 5-10 miles, it will expand to be a 5-15 mile ring, then 5-20 miles and so on until a qualifying city is found within the ring.

US 5 Mile Expanding Circles Small City Challenge By State – Choose City

First choose any US city by entering it and choosing it in the drop-down box. Then, name any US city in each 5 mile circle/ring IN THE SAME STATE as your chosen city as the rings expand outward from your city of choice, trying to name SMALLER cities instead of the easier, larger cities. The first circle will include your city of choice as a possible answer.

PLEASE NOTE - You must type a '.' (period) after each city to submit it to prevent answering another city with a name you would be have to type to get your answer - for example 'Jackson' would be answered trying to type 'Jacksonville.' If multiple cities have the name you submitted, only the smallest one will be counted.

You accumulate points based on the population of the city you named according to the following scale:
< 100 - 10 pts
100 - 499 - 8 pts
500 - 999 - 6 pts
1K - 4,999 - 4 pts
5K - 9,999 - 3 pts
10K - 24,999 - 2 pts
25K+ - 1 pt

When you run out of time or end the quiz, you will see the current ring’s smallest correct answer at right (under ‘Answer Stats’ by your coordinates).

For example, if you choose ‘Chicago’ – you will be shown a circle of radius 25 miles centered at Chicago. Naming any IL city in this circle (including Chicago) will cause another ‘ring’ of radius 5 miles to appear outside that circle, however - you will want to try naming the SMALLEST city you can to get more points (Chicago will only yield 1 point). After completing that circle, you now need to name any IL city in the new ring (but not within any previous circles/rings), again trying to name as small a city as possible. If a city is not within the next ring of that distance, the ring will keep expanding by that distance until a city falls within it. So if a city doesn’t fall within 5-10 miles, it will expand to be a 5-15 mile ring, then 5-20 miles and so on until a qualifying city is found within the ring.

US Cities Grid Identifier Challenge – Choose State

First, enter a state abbreviation (i.e. 'CA') to choose a state.

The object of this quiz is to double-click the grid square where cities are located (the centroid of the city is used). When you begin you will have a grid randomly placed with size from 0.5x0.5 degrees up to 3x3 degrees (depending on the state's size). You will be told which city to locate – simply double-click on that city’s grid square and you will move on to the next city. Each time you go to a new city the squares are randomly redrawn and with a size 10% smaller. The first 10 cities will be among the state's 25 largest, the next 10 in 26th-50th, next 10 51st-100th and the balance (until you run out of time or guess wrong) will be 101st-250th largest. When you guess wrong the correct location will be shown as a pink marker.

You do get a break if you are within 1 mile of the city but in the wrong square - you will not get credit for the guess but will get another chance at that level.

For states with less cities the quiz may complete earlier - i.e. NV only has 19 places so it will choose 10 randomly from those and after those the quiz will be over as there is no 26th-50th largest tier.

After the quiz is over you can click RESTART to retry it without refreshing the page.

First, choose any state by entering its abbreviation - i.e. 'CA' - you will then be presented with a 5×5 table of random cities among the top 100 in that state (may be under 25 cities if less than that exist in that state). The object of the quiz is to pair up cities two at a time which have the shortest distance between them. Any cities with the same name in a state were left out of this quiz to avoid confusion.

Single click on a city’s text and it will highlight red. To choose the other city of the pair click another city’s text. Also, you can re-click on the first city to deselect it. The distance between them will be shown and you will get up to 100 points. 100 points corresponds to the closest pair of cities, 0 points to the farthest apart pair – scores decrease based on the distance of your two cities related to the possible range of distances. Those two cities will then be replaced with their score and you will now choose the closest pair of cities from the remaining 23 cities which have been adjusted to have 100 and 0 corresponding to the closest/farthest pairs among those 23, and so on until you run out of time or complete all pairs of cities leaving only 1 or 2 left.

You get a 100 point bonus for completing all pairs within 5 minutes.

US Grid Path Challenge – All Cities – Choose State And Difficulty

First, choose any state by entering its abbreviation followed by a '1' or a '2' - i.e. 'CA1' or 'FL2'. 1 refers to the easier level (larger squares) while 2 refers to the harder level (smaller squares). Then, name any city in that state to start with by entering it (cities with the same name will choose the largest city of that name first). The grid square you are starting in will turn yellow - you now must name any city in any one of the adjacent grid squares (not including diagonal) - so any grid square directly north, south, east or west of the yellow one. Naming a city in one of these squares will turn your original square red and the current newly named city square yellow - continue in the same way trying to make a path of as many squares as you can. You are not allowed to return to a red square, and if you get 'boxed in' with no squares left to complete the quiz will also end.

Grid squares will be 0.5 degrees for level 1 and 0.25 degrees for level 2, but larger for AK, CA and TX.

Please note, as you name cities it will answer the largest city first, so if you are trying to answer a city in a square to the east but a larger city of that name occurs a square to the north, the north one will be answered.

Obviously, due to the layout and separation of squares it will be impossible to complete all of them.

hugequiz Premium members will see the largest missed city in each possible next square at the end of the quiz as purple markers.

A grid will be placed on the map in the state you chose. Then, double click on the grid square with the highest population within it. The highest-population remaining square will give you 100 points, all the way down to 0 for the one with the smallest population. Try to obtain the most points by successively double-clicking on the highest-populated grid square.

This quiz uses extremely small census blocks to split up populations as far as they can be split according to the US census - so the population in each square will be very accurate based on how many people actually live within the boundaries of the grid lines.

US Random Grid Population Challenge – Choose State

First choose a state and grid size by typing the state abbreviation followed by either '1' or '2' ('1' is easier with grid squares twice the size). A grid will be randomly placed on the map in the state you chose. Then, double click on the grid square with the highest population within it. The highest-population remaining square will give you 100 points, all the way down to 0 for the one with the smallest population. Try to obtain the most points by successively double-clicking on the highest-populated grid square.

This quiz uses extremely small census blocks to split up populations as far as they can be split according to the US census - so the population in each square will be very accurate based on how many people actually live within the boundaries of the grid lines.

US State Largest Cities – Choose State & Number

Begin by choosing your state and number of cities by typing the state abbreviation followed by '25.', '50', '100' or '250' (you must use the '.' after the '25' to allow typing '250') - i.e. to choose the top 50 cities in New York, type 'NY50' - then, name the largest cities in the state you chose up to the number you chose trying to achieve the largest population. You won't be able to choose a number of cities that the state doesn't name - i.e. AZ only has 91, so 'AZ25.', 'AZ50' and 'AZ100' are the only options (the 100 option will simply be all 91). 'AZ250' is not possible as AZ100 chooses them all.

US State Parks – Choose State

First enter any state by typing its abbreviation (e.g. 'CA') - then, name all of that state's state parks. In general, this is just going to be 'State Parks' and 'State Historic/Historical Parks' - however a handful of states such as Alaska only classify a few like this so I include areas like State Recreation Areas as well. There is no time limit on this quiz.

Naming notes: You typically must be precise naming the parks, including words such as 'Lake' or 'Canyon' - some shortened names are accepted. For parks named after people, usually the last name will suffice.
