The 5 almost nearly contiguous Urban Areas of the SW shore of Lake Michigan (Chicago, Round Lake, Kenosha, Racine, and Milwaukee UAs) contain a total of 10.5M people on 3,040 sq. miles of land.
That land area is like 1.5 Delawares or half a Hawaii.
But it spreads across 3 states, so not as useful of a comparison to the other examples being offered.
