Also bear in mind the relative populations of New York, Beijing and Dubai. No surprise Dubai looks "tiny".

Not that I'm standing up for Dubai - I didn't like it at all when I went there and it has some very serious problems. I think the demographics don't match the form of the city very well - the city is too large and the buildings are too grand to match the people who are actually there (who are mostly construction workers it seems).
