You’re daft. Wassila has a population of less than 10,000 people. You can’t honestly call that urban. Hell, if you moved all of Alaska’s 684,000 people into a single city it would barely make the top of US cities. There is nothing urban about Alaska, period. Repeat after me: Alaska is a tiny (population wise) rural state.
Make that top 20 of U.S. cities. That’s right, the USA has 20 cities (5 of them are in Texas) that are larger than the entire state of Alaska.
Well, Calvin Coolidge came from Dixville Notch, Vt., which makes Wassila look like New York City, but he turned out to be a pretty good president.
