| What I was responding to: > 0F being "coldest you'll experience in a place humans commonly live" Using US and Canada cities, here are the top 10 places at or below 0F a year: Fairbanks, Alaska — ~115 days Yellowknife, Northwest Territories — ~103 days International Falls, Minnesota — ~57 days Grand Forks, North Dakota — ~55 days Winnipeg, Manitoba — ~52 days Regina, Saskatchewan — ~50 days Saskatoon, Saskatchewan — ~48 days Fargo, North Dakota — ~42 days Thunder Bay, Ontario — ~40 days Williston, North Dakota — ~39 days > Can you share a good example of a large (say 500k+ metro area I've lived in over a dozen places in North America but only 1 time was it in a place with over 500k. There are ~ 52 cities in the US and Canada with a pop over 500k. Those 52 cities make up 0.2% of all incorporated cities and towns. Over 75% of US towns have less than 5k people. The US is a country of small towns. |
