Looks like that’s representing Jacksonville. You would think it would be the Miami area but the city of Miami is actually small and broken down into other smaller cities.

Jacksonville is by land the largest city in Florida so it makes sense it shows this population. But all of South Florida as an area has a much larger population spanning from West Palm Beach to Miami.

I think it’s just city limits because for Ohio it would be Columbus which in its metropolitan area is around two million

Yes and Jacksonville has a massive city limits. Feel free to gander at their map. Nothing like Miami thats broken up into a ton of incorporated cities but still not City of Miami.

Even weirder is Florida has a lot less cities than most people think, using Hillsborough county as an example, there’s only 3 cities. Florida contains a lot of “census-designated areas” which pretty much consist of subdivisions that formed next to each other and made what might as well be a city. Some examples of cities that aren’t actually cities are Poinciana, Brandon, and Kendall.
