Challenge Chicago Geographer #1 – US Long Names & Large Populations

Can you beat Chicago Geographer? CG himself takes this quiz one time and your job is to beat his score! You will have the exact same criteria for each square as he does.

The object of this quiz is to try to name the LARGEST US city in each grid square which fits the category label for each square. To name a city, you must first CLICK on the grid square to make it have a GREEN border. Then, type in the city answer for that square followed by a ‘.’ (a period). You are given a score from 0 to 100 based on your answer’s population compared to the largest city accepted in that square (100 being you named the largest city). When a square is answered you will see your city and score along with Chicago Geographer’s. If neither of you answered the top answer you will see that as well. You won’t see the final leaderboard until after the quiz is completed as well, unless you have already played in which case it will show after clicking START.

⚠️ Important: You only get one official attempt. Any future plays will still work for practice, but your score will not be saved.

LETTER: means the city starts with that letter.
NUMBER RANGE: (such as 2-5, 10+) means the city contains that many letters (excluding spaces and special characters).
POPULATION RANGE: (such as 50-100K) means the city has that range for its population.
2+ WORDS means the city name has 2 or more words (words denoted by a space or hyphen).

THIS QUIZ will focus on cities with long names and large populations, so you will only see squares with ‘8-9′ or ’10+’ for length, or ‘100-250K’, ‘250-500K’, or ‘500K+’ for population.

AK and HI are NOT included in this quiz as they often have grid squares with only one answer for this quiz.
