This quiz goes by county not urban area. This makes counties like Riverside/San Bernardino at the top because they are so huge. Is there a way to measure this by urban area and not counties or would that be too much of a hassle?

Depends, urban areas are really hard to define sometimes, and I haven't yet found a good source for urban areas. If anybody has a good source for it though, I would be all ears!
