For many people who spend most of their time in SF, anything other than SF, LA, and NYC is "flyover country".

It's absolutely hilarious to put SF in the same category as LA and NYC.

That's why I had the qualifier that it only applied to people in SF. Their view that SF is in the same category as LA and NYC shows how myopic and inward-looking many of the people in SF are.

I was wondering what the population breakdown looked like and I found this:

As a Houstonian this amuses me greatly.

Chicago is technically flyover country. It's the capital of flyover country, but it's flyover country.
