Most states don't actually have that many people. Most of the 300M+ Americans live in the same handful of cities.

Not combined of course, but as of 2025 NYC has a population of about 8.6 million... so there are only 12 US states with a population greater than that.

California, Texas, Florida, New York, Pennsylvania, Illinois, Ohio, Georgia, North Carolina, Michigan, New Jersey, and Virginia (but just barely).
