Surely Bekasi is merely a district of Jakarta and not a separate city?

It is a direct suburb, part of Jakarta's urban area.

Bekasi is part of Jakarta’s metropolitan area, but it is it’s own city.

Why does Belo Horizonte come up when one types "BH"?

There are far more commonly used abbreviations (e.g. "LA", "KL" etc) that are not accepted on Jetpunk quizzes.

thats honestly so dumb imo. i hate typing in los angeles and kuala lumpur when i know most people use la and kl. but for a far lesser known city to have a shortened version accepted but not them? kind of annoying.

Because typing Lagos, La Paz, Las Vegas, Laredo, etc. would automatically give you L.A., giving you Los Angeles. If you have predictive text, typing los and a space will probably prompt Angeles anyway.

I think on most other quizzes 'Belo' is accepted for 'Belo Horizonte', when it didn't work I assumed I was just wrong

Good quiz, don't think "BH" should be allowed, especially when Bhopal is on the quiz.

I changed it from accepting BH to accepting Belo now.

Nice quiz, but there's a mix of municipal and urban area figures. Buenos Aires proper is 2.8 million. Barcelona proper is 1.6 million. Birmingham proper is 1.1 million. Give or take.

Boston's U.S. Census Urbanized Area population is 4,181,019.

Its U.S. Census Metropolitan Area, which includes rural area, has 4,941,632 people.

Its U.S. Census Combined Statistical Area, which Jetpunk typically substitutes as urban areas, although containing disparate Census Urbanized Areas and surrounding rural area, has 8,466,186 people.

The 1st statistic is legitimate, contiguous urban population around Boston. The 3rd is non-contiguous U.S. Census Urbanized Areas of Boston, Providence, Manchester, Nashua, Fitchburg--Leominster, Hyannis (Barnstable / Cape Cod), New Bedford, Portsmouth, Dover--Rochester, MINUS some actual Urbanized Area population in other "metropolitan areas" directly across state lines from city centers yet attached to Portland 50 miles away as " metropolitan", PLUS much rural area. Although again, this is the standard "urban area" used by Jetpunk and faulty sites like Demographia and Citypopulation.de.

Thank you, but all of the censuses have the Boston- DC- Baltimore situation, and they all have different opinions on it, so I just chose one of them. Personally, I don’t really know the full truth about it, but if the censuses don’t, then I can’t really do anything. I hope this makes sense :)
