What about similarly populated cities?
In new street additions, Srivilliputtur and Asamankese both built increasingly disconnected streets over time, while Muse built increasingly disconnected streets from 1975 through 1991-2005, then improved. For the full street network, though, all three cities follow the same trend. Notably, Srivilliputtur had a more connected network than Muse in 1975 but the two have since reversed their relative ranking.
