US City Grid – All Cities – Choose State

Directions

First choose a state and level by typing the state’s abbreviation then ‘1’, ‘2’, or ‘3’ – i.e. ‘TX2’. Level 1 is easier, with a 1 degree grid. Level 2 has a 0.5 degree grid, and Level 3 a 0.25 degree grid. Name any place in each grid square. Areas which are blank do not contain a place that qualifies (no places, only unincorporated places, etc). You get more time for larger states and higher levels.

hugequiz Premium members will see the top 25 missed cities at the end of the quiz as purple markers.

Enter state abbreviation followed by level to begin (i.e. 'MO3').

US City Grid 2nd Largest City Challenge

Type 'easy' or 'hard' to begin the quiz. Easy is a 5-degree grid, hard is a 2.5-degree grid. Then, try to name the SECOND LARGEST city in each grid 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 2nd largest city accepted in that square (100 being you named the 2nd largest city). If you guess the largest city it will be based on the ratio of the 2nd largest city's population to the largest.

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

At the end of the quiz the 2nd largest city will show in each unanswered square, and for those answered the 2nd largest city will be listed next to your score if you didn't answer it.

on PA2 you have Bellefonte as the answer rather than the much larger college town that occupies the same square (~41,983)

This is the ‘All Cities’ grid quiz variation, so any city in each square will take.
