The object of this quiz is to click on the circle containing the largest population. When you begin you'll be shown 2 circles on the map with radii between 10 and 250 miles which do not intersect. Click on the one with the larger population within it (based on US census tract info) then 'Submit' - if you are correct you'll move on. One incorrect round and the quiz is over. Every 5 rounds the number of circles on the map will increase by 1. Try to build the longest streak of correct circles. Circles displayed will always be non-intersecting.
NOTE: You may have to zoom out to see all circles, occasionally a AK/HI circle will be included. Also, only population within the US is included in the total, any Canada/Mexico coverage counts as 0 population within the circle.
Should not Boise City be on here?
The one in Idaho I mean.
I don’t think there currently is a city named “Boise City” – there’s just “Boise” Idaho.
I’m not positive what the official name is, but my understanding is it is officially Boise City, Idaho. The city itself interchangeably refers to itself as the City of Boise (which would not count) and Boise City. The city code is specifically called the “City Code of Boise City.” The mayor’s Covid-19 public health orders have all been issued by the “Mayor of the city of Boise City.” The census designates it as Boise City, but that may be to distinguish it from Boise County.
I refer to it as Boise in all my quizzes. Even the city’s official website just says Boise so I will leave it as that.
Oklahoma’s seems to use the word City:

I so badly wanted “New Jack” to be a bonus answer.
No New York?
the city’s name is ‘New York’ – city is only added to distinguish it from the state…officially it is ‘City of New York’
