America’s 7 mega regions.
I was looking at a map of Amtrak’s system and noticed that this country seems to be split up into 7 large regions;
1. Atlanta - Boston Corridor (Extending as far west as Cleveland)
2. Miami - Tampa - Orlando - Jacksonville Cluster
4. Houston - San Antonio - Austin - Dallas - Oklahoma City Cluster
5. Chicago - Minneapolis - Kansas City - St Louis - Cincinnati - Detroit Spoke
6. San Francisco - LA - San Diego - Phoenix - Las Vegas - Sacramento Cluster
7. Seattle - Portland - Boise - Spokane Cluster
Salt Lake City, Denver, Nashville and New Orleans would be the big independents it seems, although there could be an argument for an eighth region covering a New Orleans - Memphis - Nashville Cluster
I looked at it from a geographic perspective primarily. I took culture in to account some, but not that much.
