I couldn’t get a good vibe for the actual size so I looked it up so you don’t have to.
Area: 2000 m^2 Population: 131
That means every person gets about a parking space (15 m^2) to themselves.
Ummm, either you mixed units or your parking spots are very large.
15m² is slightly less than a 4m x 4m square, that’s basically a small flat (larger than the smallest legal flat in a lot of developed countries, in fact)
15m^2 is 5mX3m. Or 9ft by 15ft. Parking spots in the US are 9ft by 18ft.

So actually smaller than a parking spot.
For reference, a honda civic is 6ft wide by 16ft.

The foot isn’t an SI unit, but the US influence on the internet and social media as a whole means it isn’t some obscure unheard of unit. Besides, the foot has been defined by SI units for a while now, and the survey foot being done away with makes it publically official. It’s just a conversion factor.
Then again being that pedantic is totally a reddit thing, so it’s good to see that hasn’t been lost in the migration.

Holy shit, exceptionalism much? It should have died along with Reddit
So the US has no influence on the internet or social media? In denial much?
Realize here my argument is that the US is some utopia or exception, the literal definition of exceptionalism, but there is enough influence for the general internet population to understand what a foot is. Just like how I know what a stone is without the UK being some exceptional utopia.
