St. Lawrence Seaway and River – Lake Ontario – Lake Erie – Detroit River – Lake St. Clair – Huron River – Strait of Mackinac – Lake Michigan – Fox River – Lake Fond du Lac – Fox River – Illinois River – Mississippi River – Gulf of Mexico – Atlantic Ocean
That’s an absolutely ridiculous way to look at it, lol.
what about zanzibar?
adding now, thanks.
Unfortunately, Zanzibar doesn’t seem to work properly. When you enter it the tally doesn’t go up.
fixed.
Here’s another one that is a bit off the radar but it also qualifies: Mamoudzou, capital city of Mayotte (French Overseas Region).
adding.
Venice is a curious case… the city center is definitely on an island but the majority of the population of the Venice commune is found mainland. A little known fact I think.
Some countries are not accounted for upon completion, UK and US for instance. And while I’m here, maybe Miami Beach could be in there too? Hong Kong is also partially on an island but since you’ve included New York…
ill add Miami Beach soon but not Hong Kong…want cities where the majority of the population and the city center are on an island.
Yes, I guess it’s a good criteria.
Isn’t Galveston, Texas over 50,000?
A litlle bit below that… 48.733 according to the US Largest Cities quiz.
added all the ones people commented on and removed the comments. any more, let me know.
Wouldn’t Honolulu qualify?
It’s there but you have to scroll westwards.
had to do this somewhat manually – if there’s a city of 50K+ pop on an island you think i missed, let me know.
Mumbai?
adding.
Zhoushan in China is on an island. Depending on your definitions, Xiamen also has majority population on and island. Also, potentially the cities on Penang (e.g. George Town).
added, thanks.
