The mexico stats are wrong.

All the mexican's moved to america, so those stats have to be atleast 10 years old.

Plus my town has about 4 - 5 million people, mostly mexican's but still.

[bruno]

hey, i'm from buenos aires. (we are in the top 10!!! )
haha.
There's always an american complaining abaut mexican's migration.
As we say here: "Jodanse loco!" su presidente detruye ciudades y mata inocentes por petroleo, vallan a reprochar eso y no que se les llena el pais de mejicanos, si se la pasan ostentando sus beneficios y lujos por ser americanos, que quieren que hagan?! ellos tambien quieren un poco! :D
I hope there's an argentinean messing around that can read that...
I'm sure he/she will enjoy my comment :D

adios.

[Cotboy]

Hmmm... Sudbury, Ontario, Canada would be like what 3476237th place? Got like 150 000 people here

[CFE]

Don't worry man these stats are 10 years old, don't mean a damn thing.

[littleguystudio]

[hokushin]

I'm located at Manila, Philippines, and I must say it's really crowded here. Lots and Lots of people but not enough space. Too much pollution too, but if you know where to go, you'll find some good spots. :)
