Other areas under the cultural hegemony of Sumer or Akkad are also sometimes referred to as being part of Mesopotamia.

 Emerging Auto-Competitive Urban Transit Technologies: A Brief Review
But because trips to downtown are a very small proportion of the total daily trips in a metropolitan area, the first specification is not even close to being met for the total population in any of our metropolitan areas today.
The second specification is even less likely to be satisfied in our very dispersed metropolitan areas, especially in the western part of the U.S. In most cases, more than 80% of all jobs are not located in a downtown but are scattered throughout the metropolitan area in a polycentric but very dispersed fashion.

In a metropolitan area with well over a million people, you can escape the crowds--to a quiet beach, a lush forest, or even a deserted island if you like--sometimes in as little as half an hour.
