The object of this quiz is to place 20 circles of radius 100 miles on the map so that they contain the largest total population.
When you begin you'll be given a 100-mile radius circle centered on the map. Move it using the mouse and click SUBMIT. You will be given a score for that circle corresponding to the total population among all US census tracts within it (there are about 85K total US census tracts averaging about 4K people each). Try to complete all 20 circles with the highest total score.
Any INTERSECTING areas are only counted one time, so no census tract will be counted more than once.
This would be fun to play with a map version. Where you type in a name and the colored markers show up. Either way, I love it.
You can do it on a map by state:

ridiculous, love it
I literally have no idea how it’s possible to even type, much less KNOW even half of these. I mean half the towns on the Alaska list are villages with less than a thousand people. There’s Just. no. way.
i refuse to believe that 16 people have gotten every single city correct
Right? I mean there’s just no way someone would off the top of their head know the fifty largest cities in every state.
Need more time! I was typing the whole time but couldn’t reach 500 fast enough to get a time bonus
I’ve added some – there are some good time bonuses for the Population and Rank By State categories at right too.
