What about similarly populated cities?
In new street additions, Ramgarhwa fluctuated in its street-construction patterns, while Dongshan built increasingly connected streets from 1975 through 1991-2005, then shifted to more disconnected patterns and Khureit (Al Kuma) fluctuated in its street-construction patterns. For the full network, Ramgarhwa grew more disconnected from 1975 through 1976-1990, then improved, while Dongshan became progressively more connected and Khureit (Al Kuma) fluctuated in connectivity. Notably, Ramgarhwa had a more connected network than Dongshan in 1975 but the two have since reversed their relative ranking.
