Yikes! Thanks for pointing this out. Now I'll need to look up population numbers for each borough.
In the old days, of course, Brooklyn really was an independent city in every sense. Even since annexation, people from Brooklyn (and, often, people from others boroughs) will not say they're "from" New York City. Letters addressed to New York, NY, go to Manhattan; the others boroughs' mail is addressed as such.
