569.3 inhabitants per square mile for a metropolitan area? In that case half of western Europe could be considered one giant metropolitan area. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_population_density

Thought San Francisco would be on here somewhere, and didn't expect Orlando and Dallas.

Yeah, the boundaries of American metros are stunningly absurd. BTW, I'm shocked San Fran isn't in the top 5 let alone the top 25.

hilco, Definitely a lot more sprawl in the US. Boundaries are the "Metro Statistical Areas", as defined by the Census Bureau. I'm not sure how they draw it up. Also, the cities proper are often considerably higher. The places that lose out have large ajoining counties that are sparsely inhabited.
