"In today’s climate, half of the #UrbanAreas in #Europe would be climatically suitable for it, including large cities such as #London, #Paris, #Rome and #Barcelona.
With #GlobalHeating, the continent will become much more suitable for the species and help its spread across #Europe." #GlobalWarming #ClimateChange

new Census-designated #UrbanAreas just dropped. Looks good!
💻: https://tigerweb.geo.census.gov/tigerweb2020/
@Transportist Per the FR Notice - also my thread - there're 2 situations where Census creates separate, standalone #UrbanAreas.
1st: the 1.5 mile "jump" rule (>=1.5 mile buffer of completely undev'd woods or plains or farmland, etc.). 2nd situation is the megalopolis case: UAs can be split up in situation of significant internal commuteshed.
Not sure yet which 🤔 situation precipitated Stillwater MN being it's own UA. We'll know more when USCB shows us the maps.
We asked for frugality, limiting the inclusion of fringe/periurban edges in designated #UrbanAreas. For example, now & also before, Census would rope in edge developments that were 0.5 - 2+ miles beyond the developed core of a metro. But what is the allowed limit? We advocated for a frugality: a 1.5 mile limit. Development >1.5 mi outside a contiguous Urban Area should be recognized separate.
2nd: We weighed in large urban areas swallowing up smaller ones.
