| What criteria are you using for including metropolitan areas? — — There are 366 areas with the official classification of "Metropolitan Statistical Areas", but this list is much shorter than that. — — However, it could include such places as Anchorage, Alaska and Honolulu, Hawaii, which are thousands of miles away from the nearest Ikea. (Okay, you can't drive from Honolulu to the mainland, but you CAN drive from Anchorage to Seattle, as I've done it.) — — I think this quiz should be edited, or at least more information provided in the description about what qualifies or what doesn't. Otherwise, people could be entering perfectly valid answers like Yakima or Pensacola and not have the quiz accept it. |
