    That’s not the point.

    So, if you take new York State as an example. If the average for the state is 18 miles (I can’t see the post when replying to a comment in this app, so that’s just using the same number as an example), do the cities skew that?

    Like, if NYC and Albany have their own average of five miles, but people outside cities average 25 (or whatever it would be, I’m not doing math for this lol), that’s an interesting thing.

    That’s what I’m talking about.
