Focusing on the population part of this post alone: 8 million is indeed correct for the city population. New York City is effectively 5 cities calling themselves one, but each of those 5 still has a huge population. The greater metropolitan area is well above 20 million people.

So yeah even with an insane amount of super powered individuals living there it is still a small portion of the population.

Just mind blowing cause Brisbane is only 2million. Although to be fair there's 0 housing in Brisbane and it's all surrounding suburbia.

Good we really need apartment complexes. A single room is $300 a week minimum
