A little while ago I chose not to make this quiz because I thought it would be too similar to the present-day list, but this actually turned out to be really interesting. Statistics such as Phoenix gaining a million people and Boston losing almost 200,000 in just sixty-ish years makes playing this quiz pretty interesting.

Suprised at the populations of Minneapolis, Newark, St Louis, DC, LA, Arlington, Berkeley, Salt Lake City, and Kansas City-Kansas.

What a difference 50 years makes - especially for Phoenix.
