Interesting study of the largest cities in the world in 2050 (projection).
The US will only have two of the top 50 cities in the world (population), New York City and Los Angelos. In 1950, the US had three cities in the top ten (NYC, Chicago, LA). In North America, Mexico City has seen massive growth, and that is a understatement.
Amazed at the growth of cities/population in Asia and Africa.
My takeaway- land is everything, "buy land and all you can young man". There will be major global conflicts to compete for basic necessities. The US will likely have mass immigration from Asia and Africa to utilize the USA's open land and make up shortfalls in entitlement funding by generating new people to pay into social security, Medicare, etc. in 2100, the USA will have a massive shift in its demographics and its core values. The open, farmable land and fresh water is what will bring the global masses to migrate to the USA in 2100.
This video is interesting to watch to get a visual of city population from 1950 to present:
