That #8 shadowed area is only a small part of Mandarin but heavy in Apartments and patio homes.

Ummmm.... Ennis..... YOU'RE WRONG!

Riverside/Avondale has 300,000 residents.  It is bursting at the seems and cannot fit any more people or businesses within it's borders.  It should put a moratorium on all building permits.

"Riverside-Avondale has 300,000 residents?????????????"  Where did that number come from? According to RAP there are only 3000 structures in RAP so where are those 300,000 living? In all the high rises? Oh, that's right there aren't any. That number is BS. There might be 30,000 living here.

Wow, what's up with the Riverside punches today?  Is this all about the King Street residential/commercial conflicts?

Anyway, the census tracts combine Riverside/Avondale with Brooklyn.  That total number is 15,228 residents at a population density of 4,465.69 per square mile.

For comparison's sake, Springfield's number is 3,726 residents at 3,922.11 people per square mile.

Durkeeville/Moncrief's number is 20,990 residents at 4,456.48 people per square mile.  My guess is the Durkeeville area has higher density over a wider expanse of land but one of it's largest census tract is mostly industrial.

San Marco's tracts are combined with the Southbank.  That number comes out to 6,812 residents at 3,423 people per square mile.

I'm pretty sure he was joking...

Oh, I know.  I was just answering the last sentence about the 30,000 living there, since I was wondering about it myself.
