Geography is the study of places and the relationships between people and their environments. Geographers explore both the physical properties of Earth’s surface and the human societies spread across it. They also examine how human culture interacts with the natural environment and the way that locations and places can have an impact on people. Geography seeks to understand where things are found, why they are there, and how they develop and change over time. Read more...

Planned for 400.000 people? Third largest city in California?
400k isn't even much in European standards. I don't get that claim.
Per the article it's the "third largest by land area."
It might be by size and not by population, as there are several cities in California that surpass 400k people
Yea, I'm pretty sure I've heard of San Diego being referred to as California's 3rd largest city.
definitely by area. it's "larger" than san jose, but with a million fewer people.
