As a kid I thought New Orleans was huge. Like one of the biggest cities in the country.
Silly.

It was top 10 in the US until 1890. Then at 627k in 1960. New Orleans had so much potential squandered and lost.

A lot of people that live there have that attitude.
New Orleans metro is roughly the size of Louisville or Buffalo.
In reality it's smaller than even these metro areas:
Columbus, OH
Sacramento, CA
Providence, RI
Austin, TX
Oklahoma City, OK
Memphis, TN
Richmond, VA
