	Where's South Park?

	tcalleen:	Nov 5th, 2009 at 18:50 GMT	53 points
	Okay, I'll admit this is probably stupid, but since we're talking about the four corners area, it would be kind of nice if Colorado and Arizona switched places.

	At first I thought this was a joke because I thought you just had to name the four states, haha. But once I got here I realized this was not the case and... it all kind of went downhill from there ;)

	bean:	Nov 5th, 2009 at 19:27 GMT	11 points
	Excellent, got 4 redundant state quizzes out of the way

	29smitty:	Nov 5th, 2009 at 19:39 GMT	12 points
	Thank you spring training for teaching me about Tempe and Peoria.

	andrewd:	Nov 5th, 2009 at 20:10 GMT	9 points
	Haha "You got 6 answers correct! 65th percentile!" Wow people REALLY do not know these states... my aunt happened to live in two of the towns on the Arizona list, so that helped, but still, 6 is above average?!

	jessbowen:	Nov 5th, 2009 at 20:16 GMT	14 points
	Was surprised not to see Boulder or Aspen on the Colorado list and FLagstaff on the Arizona one.

	defineexistence:	Nov 5th, 2009 at 20:16 GMT	6 points
	6 is above average because very few people live in these states, and the ones who do only live in 4 or 5 of these cities. Between all 40 cities (roughly 7 mil), there are still fewer people than New York or LA.

	eln77:	Nov 5th, 2009 at 20:34 GMT	3 points
	I've lived in all 4 of these states and still wasn't able to get them all. Given the sizes of most of these towns, it's not surprising that people are missing a lot of them.

	dsee:	Nov 5th, 2009 at 20:36 GMT	2 points
	I drew a blank once I started taking this quiz, I didn't think about adding all the cities that are basically connected to denver, ie aurora, arvada, westminster

	zwieblekopf:	Nov 5th, 2009 at 20:52 GMT	7 points
	being from the 4 corners area definitely helped me out on this one. funny that only 1 AZ city isn't in the PHX area.

	Roman:	Nov 5th, 2009 at 20:54 GMT	5 points
	Surprise was a real Surprise... Never expected Rio Rancho to be bigger then Santa Fe though

	Kazbar:	Nov 5th, 2009 at 20:59 GMT	5 points
	Even though I still managed to get it, I would definitely have "West Valley" acceptable for "West Valley City", since that's what everyone in Utah calls the place

	pbrown:	Nov 5th, 2009 at 21:00 GMT	4 points
	I guess this was a successful attempt to speed up the states' population quizzes. Great Quiz

	FlyingSquirrel:	Nov 5th, 2009 at 21:18 GMT	-2 points
	Can someone explain for me why Colorado and Arizona should switch places? They are in the right places.

	eln77:	Nov 5th, 2009 at 21:27 GMT	12 points
	@FlyingSquirrel: They weren't in the correct places when that comment was made.

	smarty:	Nov 5th, 2009 at 21:31 GMT	1 point
	i got 4, the largest in each state. woot.

	fatfifer:	Nov 5th, 2009 at 22:13 GMT	-2 points
	I'm sure Santa Fe was above Rio rancho in some previous quizzes.

	As a Glengarry Glen Ross fanatic, I'm now thrilled to understand where "Rio Rancho" is.

	Colt45:	Nov 6th, 2009 at 02:52 GMT	8 points
	I knew Glendale because that's where the Arizona Cardinals play and I knew Tempe because that's where the Sun Devils play. Sports is very educational.

	mark_oh:	Nov 6th, 2009 at 03:10 GMT	1 point
	Aurora, CO! represent!

	Bren808:	Nov 6th, 2009 at 03:10 GMT	2 points
	Great game, thanks! I kept trying Truth or Consequences and Deming in NM; just couldn't get the last ones. (I keep waiting for Indiana cities though - I'm ready for that!)

	tcalleen:	Nov 6th, 2009 at 12:11 GMT	3 points
	Thanks for switching the states!

	jUNKIEd:	Nov 6th, 2009 at 16:37 GMT	2 points
	That was so much harder than I thought it would be.

	on_the_shelf:	Nov 7th, 2009 at 03:01 GMT	2 points
	I can't believe the census counts "South Valley" as a separate city in NM. Here in Albuquerque we call it a neighborhood.

	Miana90:	Nov 7th, 2009 at 04:52 GMT	4 points
	Well I got the capitals at least..

	adamnvillani:	Nov 9th, 2009 at 06:05 GMT	4 points
	A whole lot of these cities are suburbs of Phoenix, SLC, or Denver.

	retsyn:	Nov 11th, 2009 at 19:36 GMT	3 points
	arvada resident right here. i have to complain about it not accepting "ft" for "fort"...

	mike5816:	Nov 21st, 2009 at 15:38 GMT	4 points
	(1) Saint George should be acceptable instead of just St. George (2) South Valley is not a city in New Mexico. It has no municipal government or established boundaries. It is a "census designated place" for statistical purposes only. Therefore THIS IS A WRONG ANSWER FOR THIS QUIZ. The quiz title says "Can you name the most populated cities..."

	Esme:	Nov 29th, 2009 at 22:18 GMT	4 points
	I love that these quizzes really become quizzes about how well you know suburbs, not cities. That's 90% of the fun for me. Good way to challenge our standard, lazy way of thinking about geography. :)

	Bob91351:	Feb 2nd, 2010 at 19:53 GMT	4 points
	It came as a surprise to me that Surprise was #10 in Arizona

	kateylady:	Jul 9th, 2010 at 23:42 GMT	1 point
	Okay, first of all, "South Valley" is most definitely NOT a city in New Mexico. At least not according to my 2010 Rand McNally Road Atlas. And second, where the hell is Boulder, CO!? According to the census bureau, the population of Boulder in 2008 was 293,161. If "South Valley" is its own city, then Boulder sure as hell is too! Sorry to rant, but this one really got to me!

	chriskotx:	Sep 27th, 2010 at 05:28 GMT	3 points
	A check on Wikipedia shows that South Valley, NM is not a legal city, but it is a place (CDP) that the Census Burea says has a population of 45k. Boulder and Centennial are both close to 100k in population (Boulder 293k metro). Centennial apparently nosed Boulder out for the last place on the quiz list. Calm down, Katelady. :)

	that's cause Boulder is a terrible, terrible place to live. Why anyone would want to go there is a mystery to me. Oh yeah and Go Rams.
