How about the fact there is only one Fed district west of the Rockies ( San Fran) and Two districts inside the state of Missouri (Kansas City and St Louis)

That makes sense too?

It probably made more sense when they set up the districts. If you look at a map it doesn't seem that bad.
Federal Reserve Districts

It could probably stand to be revised based on the population and the number of banks. But it's working well enough, and revising it means law changes and that ALWAYS provides opportunity for pork. So I say leave well enough alone.
