Mid sized American city with 200K without internet?? Let’s be generous and say that that represents 1/4 of the population (for context, this suggests 10% of broader US population goes without: https://www.allconnect.com/blog/33-million-americans-dont-us...). That makes your city’s population 800,000. That’s in the top 20 of cities by size (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_United_States_cities...).

If you raise the percentage of the city that represents up, it starts to get unbelievable. If you vary it down, your city wouldn’t qualify well as midsized. Do you have a source for your claim?
