       The black areas are Los Angeles, San Diego, and Chicago. L.A, which is short for Los Angles, is the second-largest city in the U.S with a population of 3,772,621. San Diego is the eight-largest city in the United States with the population of 1,355,896. San Diego is known for its mild weather; it has on average 146 sunny days and 117 partly cloudy days a year. Chicago is the third most  populous city in the U.S. with 2.7 million residents. In 2012, Chicago hosted 46.37 million international and domestic visitors. All of these areas use a lot of energy with lights, due to the amazing view with all the beautiful buildings at the center of the cities.
