How many people are within 5 miles of you when you are asleep at 3 am?

[modest mouse]

My best guess:

750

 

[Never]

Um...
During the summer or winter time?
Right now, I'd say maybe 500. That will drop when fall comes though.

 

[modest mouse]

Tonight at 3 am. Or in general.

Damn, never, you live further in the sticks than I do.

Thats 5 miles as the crow flies, btw.

 

[perks]

about 30,000, I think.

 

[Laurel]

Nearly everyone, except for the asshole drunk who ran over my mailbox last night.

 

[TWB]

Depends on what kind of party I am having.

You think that's bad?
If I were living 'up Maine' my answer would be 4.

 

[Spinaroonie]

Nearly everyone, except for the asshole drunk who ran over my mailbox last night.

Were any periodicals injured?

 

[Laurel]

No, the paper hadn't come yet, and I'd emptied the box the afternoon previous, so the carnage could've been worse.

Do you have a cat-shaped or other cute mailbox, or just the good old utilitarian standard?

[ExLimey]

Probably less than 500. A five mile radius is what, 75 square miles?

 

[Soblue]

Ooh.. that first mailbox is adory-ble

I'd guess 200,000 people. I could be way out of my mind, but I'm going with it.

 

[perks]

if that's the case, I think I run into Baltimore city, instead of just my town, and the number skyrockets.

 

[modest mouse]

A 5 mile radius is rather large when you consider it superimposed over a 'globe'.

 

[Vilac]

I'm going to say approximately 1250.

I'm in a sticks area as well. <shrug>

No wonder I cant find a kinky bitch around here. LOL
V~~~~

 

[Hamletmaschine]

This is not a question I would waste time thinking about.

 

[Never]

Okay, I'm an idiot.

Make that 500 during the off-season and 8,000 right now. That is all.

 

[modest mouse]

This is not a question I would waste time thinking about.

Oops, too late.

And you waste more time coming back to read this.

Its a vicious circle.

 

[Laurel]

It's just a normal mailbox. I'm not a total cat psycho. I don't have a cats on my calendar or my coffee mug, and I don't collect cat paraphernalia. If I do start doing that, I've made Manu promise to spank me into sense.

over a million people live in the Las Vegas Valley. I live fairly close to the strip as well...

so lets take New Year's Eve for example...

100,000 for the hotel occupancy
and a good 10 thousand for the surroundings

its not to the point where I can knock on my neighbors glass and ask for a roll of toliet paper

but its damned close




~and thats as close to the big red X as you'll ever get~

Okay, that's large than my town.. how about we make that an even 100,000?

See, and you thought I lived in the sticks. I'm a city gal.

 

[Mellon Collie]

Hmm, this is hard to estimate. There are entirely too many pieces to factor in, I live in the city which means row-homes, I also live on an extremely busy street which is within walking distance of I-95. There is a bar on just about every corner not to mention the prison which I think is within five miles and then there is the treatment center and all the parks which are always host to a keg party by neighborhood teens.

Best guess: Too many to count.

 

[CarolineOh]

I would guess about 500,000- 750,000. That's counting Canadians, do I get any extra credit for them?

 

[riff]

A crapload! I often wonder during the school year when I wake up at 4 or 430AM how many of them are conscious and I try to imagine them snug in their beds....

.... or passed out on the toilet, etc...

hehe

 

[wink740]

Somewhere around 1000. Living in the sticks is wonderful after living in the city.
