The population density is also a huge factor in the death toll differences. 71% of deaths in New York came from the five counties (boroughs) that comprise New York City. Add in the two Long Island counties and Westchester County (borders NYC to the north) and you're up to 89% of all deaths.


Cuomo did not do a good job. Which is neither here nor there. What I find disgusting are his lies and politicization.

Florida is also full of poor blacks and hispanics who are not affluent af. Yet you only heard of the skyhigh death toll among these groups from New York, not from Florida.

Few years back i went to Tampa for a vacation. We got a pretty nice house with a pool for a week. I zillow'd the value and it was like 70 grand. Same house anywhere in a 100 mile radius of any of those NYC counties would be easily worth 7x at minimum.

Space is important. Can't social distance on a subway or in housing developments.

And? The average population density of those eight counties is 3151/sq mi. The only county in Florida that exceeds that average is Pinellas County (St Petersburg/Clearwater), at 3276/sq mi. The next closest county in Florida is Broward County (Ft Lauderdale) at 1472/sq mi. That's less than half of the average of the top 8 NY counties. The top 8 Florida counties by density average 1481/sq mi. The average age in Florida is 6.4 years higher than New York, so with that additional age comes less mobility, on average (particularly as you get to the higher age brackets). There's also a much higher use of public transportation in NYC, compared to cities in Florida (56.5% in NYC, where the highest city in Florida by percentage of commuters using public transit is Miami, at 11.4%). There's a lot of factors besides "bUt tEh cUoMo" that explain the difference in deaths.
