Atlanta has around 5 million in the area - but it's a very spread out city. It's also a city in a forest.

All those areas around the center of the city where you see the trees are the residential areas. They spread out for tens of KM from the central area.

It's not really my type of place though. I was there last month driving around and it just seemed SO spread out. Trees trees everywhere with housing developments all over. It was pretty, but didn't seem like a "city".

Aerial photography is a hybrid of two separate technologies, aviation and photography. A variety of combination have been used, which have proved useful to a wide range of fields, scientific, military, and artistic. Aerial views generally adhere to one of two types: the direct vertical, producing a rational, linear representation useful in cartography, and the oblique horizontal; resulting in a more descriptive, pictorial image. Although aerial photography usually implies air-to-ground views, it can also include air-to-air images of aircraft, cloud formations, and other meteorological phenomena. Facebook Layouts

So it is a 5 million people suburb, with houses a 50k city. Well, the quality of life in the suburb must be good.
